Glad to know she's in the normal range for pee accidents. DS was just sooo easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915861 Tue, 26 May 2020 12:04:09 +0000 MrsSRS 2915861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As a daycare provider, I would say that four pairs of pants a day is...normal. For some kids for the first two weeks wearing pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915855 Tue, 26 May 2020 08:51:09 +0000 josina 2915855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Miss Ariel: Yeah, I think my daycare provider would actually be better at potty training since she's 100% paying attention the the kids all day. She helped a ton when we trained DS.<br /> I think we went through at least 4 pair of pants a day this weekend. Holy laundry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915724 Thu, 21 May 2020 19:26:01 +0000 DesertDreams88 2915724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Loose shorts and other tips above. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915722 Thu, 21 May 2020 19:23:18 +0000 Miss Ariel 2915722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@josina: I would have hoped we had made more progress after 2 months of being home. Hopefully we’ll be able to go back to daycare in a couple of weeks and we’ll see how that goes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915703 Thu, 21 May 2020 14:42:11 +0000 josina 2915703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSRS: Thanks for the tips, I'll try this this weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915701 Thu, 21 May 2020 14:38:09 +0000 MrsSRS 2915701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Provide her with a basket of cleaning rags, a bucket for dirty rags and clothes, and a pile of loose shorts. When she pees in her pants calmly, with as little attention as possible, tell her to clean it up and change. Then ignore, ignore, ignore. Try to wait until she's distracted or engaged in play to go back over her clean up job more thoroughly. No attention for accidents. Lots of praise for potties. Taking a break from play to change is boring and takes effort and can be a good motivator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915700 Thu, 21 May 2020 13:38:42 +0000 josina 2915700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BUNBUN: We do long shirts or dresses mostly, and then as soon as shorts/pants go on (or even a loose romper last weekend) it's wet. SMH.</p> <p>@caitcat: At least we're not alone, lol. DD is 3 years 3 months so should be ready. She even went 3+ hours on Mother's Day with no accident when we went to town to get carryout pizza, and then a half hour after we got home (and pee'd), she wet her pants.</p> <p>@Miss Ariel: Oh man, I'm so glad she doesn't poop her pants at least. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915698 Thu, 21 May 2020 13:15:23 +0000 Miss Ariel 2915698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same, but especially with poop. It’s doesn't help that we’re at home the whole time so there’s basically no reason to ever where clothes. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915685 Thu, 21 May 2020 11:32:01 +0000 caitcat 2915685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice, but you're not alone! My 3 year old can totally handle making it to the potty naked...but the second underwear goes on (or even very loose shorts that vaguely touch her bottom), she starts peeing in them. We've been stuck in the naked stage for weeks now, and I feel like it's just not getting better - and I'm so sick of her being naked. i mean, it's not that we're going anywhere, even...but I'm just tired of having to think so much about where she sits of what she sits on. I have wondered if she's just not actually ready to potty train, but I'm so confused since she can (seemingly) handle it naked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915682 Thu, 21 May 2020 10:59:27 +0000 BUNBUN 2915682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I remember from the Oh Crap method to start with loose clothing: dresses with no bottoms, oversized shorts, etc. good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-past-the-naked-stage-potty-training-sos#post-2915679 Thu, 21 May 2020 09:58:53 +0000 josina 2915679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So DD does awesome if she's naked - she's perfectly capable of going to the bathroom to pee/poop/whatever, but as soon as we put underwear or pants on her, she pee's in them. I swear they only last 10 minutes before she pee's in them and is back running around naked.</p> <p>How do I get past the 'naked' stage!? This has been a weeks-long process already. </p>
