My daughter is old enough to start potty training she is 27 months old. She has been potty training a little bit, but we stopped cause she broke her arm and haven't started back up because her sleeping schedule is off. But I'm having a baby in 32 days should I start potty training now or wait and if I do wait how long should I wait. I know I shouldn't have quit in the first place and I'm kicking myself for that. And when she was potty training she was doing pretty good by the end of two weeks she was having an accident maybe every other day.

I would have to say that as long as your daughter is interested in being potty trained, then continue the training. If she tries to fight you, then back off and wait a while. If she was doing that good when you first started, it shouldn't take long to get her back in the routine. Just be consistent. If you start trying the potty training again, don't stop again. This would be sending your daughter mixed signals. My prayers are with you and I hope everything works out with your new addition. Congrats!

Start. She's at the age. Don't force it, but introduce it again. Get a sticker chart and every time she goes she gets to put a sticker on it. When she gets enough stickers, she gets a prize. Get her some underwear that you know she will want to wear once she is potty trained, it's not bribing, but it's a goal. If she's ready, then it's time.

If she was having "accidents" every other day (or longer) Then she wasn't completely potty trained and should have remained in diapers. My suggestion is to start her back on the potty since she was obviously geared for it but keep her in diapers until she is COMPLETELY potty trained, and that includes pooping on the toilet. That is unless you enjoy washing out shitty underwear.

I've always heard (and this has been the case for my nieces and nephews) that when the child starts ripping off his/her diaper regularly, that THAT is indication that it is time to start potty training.

I would wait till baby comes but if she shows interest just lave potty there for her a new baby will probably disrupt anyway.

If it was my child I would wait until you have the bub! You will find she will have alot to adjust to when her new little sister or brother arrives. She will probably forget about going to the toilet. She is still quite young. But you should do what you feel is right. I know that is would be easier to only have one in nappies.

theres no need 2 be kicking urself over this u didnt quit u guys just took a break & these things happen... theres no harm in giving it another go, ur daughter will let u know if shes good & ready 2 start again... just give her lots of praise, encouragemnt & her privacy, she'll be all "grown up" in no time... good luck!

I'd say start, it couldn't hurt. She may start having more accidents once the baby comes but as long as you tell her it's no big deal if she has an accident, it won't be.

u should probably try again, it's so much easier only changing 1 diaper, 27 mos is a good age. congrats on ur baby!

I would say wait, many children regress after having a new sibling.
