If it's a boy, you're gonna have to wait a while. He might look ready, but he ain't.
If it's a girl, put her in panties and get going. I still have a potty seat in my car so that when she has to go "now," I can immediately pull over and let her go. Doing this reinforces her telling me that she has to go. It also reinforces her to listen to that "I gotta go" feeling.
Another thing is to have the child go potty at regular intervals and let him/her see what it's like to be dry. Use lots of praise for dry diapers and dry undies. Lots! They love that. They will soon be so proud to show you their dry undies or the pee in the potty.

I am having problems in this area also. Cause you just want them to go. And then sometimes they will go and then they will in spite of everything pee in thier potty pants again. I make my daughter go every hour cause I want her to get familiar with going. And she drinks alot that is why I make her go so much. But usally when u wake up in the morning frist take them to the potty. It does take alot of patience I have learned that. And my daugher likes to read so I give her books and magazines she can read while she is on the potty. Videos are also a good thing. Rewards for going to the potty. My daughter if she pees in her panties I make her take them off and go to the potty and wash them out it teaches her if I dont pee in my panties I want have to go wash them. And it is working pretty good but the other thing is really hard. But I know all in due time. I hope ure potty trainning will be a smooth riding. Just a little patience and it will be okay. But do tell her if she messies or wets her self get eye to eye level with her in a stern but reaonable voice and let her know she cant do that. And keep that up.

It takes time and they will when they are ready! My daughter was potty trained at 2 than stopped and now fully potty trained at 3 1/2. Try a sticker board or use a jar with marbles and everytime he/she goes on the potty he/she gets a sticker or a marble and at the end of the week take he/she to the store and explain why u are buying them this/or that! Good luck!

I was once now not a triumphant potty coaching mother. My 21/two had alot of injuries with peeing. If I do it all over again I could wait tilkl a few of their peers potty coach. Then they'll wish to be extra llike them. I consider we strive coaching to early in lifestyles whilst they don't have the emotional or bodily capability. I was once sufferer of seeking to maintain up with the Jones' . But it backfired on me. I relatively suppose if the mummy has to take a look at too difficult it way the child isn't in a position. Try once more in a couple of extra months. My buddy's daughter proficient in a weekend. She waited till three years. Some matters that aid is great climate, endurance, and optimistic awareness for attempt. Not sweet!!

Something i used were potty videos. I know it sounds corny, but we watched the video together and then I would talk about how everyone in the video used the potty.
I used pull ups. We would practice sitting on the potty. I put the potty in the bathroom so when i went to the potty i would encourage (not force) my daughter to sit on the little potty while i sat on the big potty.
It took about a week for her to get comfortable with the whole potty idea. Soon after, she would go to the potty take the pull up down sit down and then get up, never actually going. That was part of her process in getting comfortable with the potty.
Once she saw the excitement over her actually going, she wanted to always go.
The key is to never show frustration over the fact she is not going. You want to make them feel like they thought of the idea. Just encourage and be consistent!

I'm going through this myself.
One thing to consider is that your kiddo wants independence - don't push too hard. I think I was insisting too much, which mad him rebel against it. Once I backed off a little and let it be "his idea" - he showed a lot more interest.
Another thing is to be consistent. Potty first thing in the morning, after naps, etc. every day. The familiar routine will be helpful.
The other suggestions here - patience, videos, and books will help a lot.
