We fight with her to get her to go to the bathroom. She is afraid of most toilets when we are out, so even if we find a restroom, chances are she's going to be afraid of their toilet, so we wait until we get home or are at a friend's house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2096373 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 10:59:20 +0000 yin 2096373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At almost 4, I still scramble to get to a bathroom. In most situations I am able to tell ahead of time and suggest going beforehand. If I don't pay attention, then it's a mad dash for the bathroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2096033 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 06:54:12 +0000 StbHisMrs 2096033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're struggling here too, I resort to pull-ups. She is scared to death of public restrooms, like full on screaming, shaking, almost hyperventilating. I almost can't even take her in one to wash her hands. Anywhere else we have 10-15 minutes, she'll hold it to avoid a public restroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2096011 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 02:57:27 +0000 lamariniere 2096011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is something we are struggling with. It's usually too late by the time he has told me. I have some sort of 6th sense and I know when he needs to pee. But if I happen to miss it (like he's playing at the playground and I'm chasing around LO2), it means trouble since he won't tell me until the last possible second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2095617 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 19:59:49 +0000 Bao 2095617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A good 20 minutes usually! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2095598 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 19:53:55 +0000 PinkElephant 2095598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never tried pushing it past 10 -15 mins. Often when we are out she doesn't have to go A LOT though - I think it's more curious its about the bathroom. She generally is all talk and very little tinkle :) :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2095446 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 18:35:43 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2095446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Prbably 10-15 minutes, too! She's pretty good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-potty-trained-lo-tells-you-that-they-need-to-go-potty-while-you-are-out#post-2095410 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 18:16:21 +0000 autumnlove 2095410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How much time do you have before you start worrying about accidents?</p> <p>LO is 3 and she can hold it 10-15 minutes before she gets antsy. I hated the early stages when I had to scramble to get her to a restroom ASAP! :-p </p>
