potty training?

Question

i have two children aged two and one of them is using the potty or toilet at home but wetting herself in nursery what can be causing this to happen

Answer 1

Probably they get so involved in what they are doing at nursery they forget to go, and they don't have the one to one like they do at home for someone to remind them. Also being in a slightly different environment.
My son was like this when he first went to nursery, he didn't want to leave what he was doing, or stop playing so ended up wetting himself. Was fine at home though, and is now fine at nursery too.
Am currently on day two of training with my daughter who is two, so can empathise with you!

Answer 2

There are couple of things it could be - Is she fully aware of where the toilet/potty is at nursery, are they asking her if she needs to go often enough? Also it could simply be that she doesn't feel comfortable asking to go to the toilet at nursery maybe slightly embarrassed . Try taking her to toilet when she arrives at nursery and say silly things like what a lovely toilet it is and make it all "nice and rosy" for her , kids love that and it usually works! Most of all just don't give up and she'll get there in the end. Good luck

Answer 3

Well, she still is very young. Awsome that she is 2, and wanting to go on the potty. My daughter's pediatrician told me most girls usually start using the potty around age 3. Maybe the reason she is wetting herself at the nursery is becasue she doesn't feel comfortable around the grown ups taking care of her, or maybe she is just having accidents. I wouldn't stress about it, just buy her some pull ups until she can control when she needs to go potty.

Answer 4

It is hard to speculate, but it could be that you remind your child more while at home or that your child feels more comfortable at home. Also, when a child is in nursery, there are lots of distractions and taking the time to go potty just isn't as fun as playing with the other kids. I would just speak to the teacher about it and, without placing blame, ask him/her to take your child to the restroom more often. I have a 5 year old and 2 year old. It just takes time, but if you work with the teacher, it should be okay.

Answer 5

Get her some pull ups along at the nursery. Tell the caretaker at the nursery that your girl just potty train and watch for her.
She may be over excited or stress that's why caused wetting.

Answer 6

there could be two reasons, one she is having so much fun in nursery that she forgets herself, the other could be that she is afraid to ask or nervous of going in front of others. have a little chat with her or better yet, wait behind in the nursery for a day and see how she gets on then, maybe if you spoke to the teachers you could get them to ask her regularly if she needs to go. good luck

Answer 7

dont worry too much most of the time the toddler gets that interested in what they are doing they dont realise they need the toilet till its too late just make sure you take a change of clothes in to the nursery your child should grow out of it but disscuss it with the nursery teacher if you are very concerned hope this helps

Answer 8

it could just be because she's having that much fun at nursery that she's too busy to go to the toilet she probably thinks she's going to miss out on something if she goes she'll be fine i wouldn't worry

Answer 9

she is in a strange place, and nervous, after she gets used to it and sees the other children going to the pottie she will try it.

Answer 10

she is very unhappy at the nursery and you should reconsider taking her there,or something could be going on there you need to investigate a little . good luck.
