Tough Potty Training!

My daughter Sofia is 3 1/2 yrs.old and she is extremely resistant to even sitting on any kind of potty big small or otherwise. She screams like we are ripping her arms and legs off anytime we try to get her to sit on the potty. We started out encouraging her to sit on her own but it was pure novelty to her. Now that we are trying to get more serious with her using it, she won't even sit on it at all without any kind of force. She has gone pee three times and pooh once(in the last three months) and knows how to do it. But, now has no...

Nite Time Potty Training

My daughter turned 4 in January. She's been daytime PT since she was 3 1/2. I decided to start trying to potty train her thru the night by having her potty b4 bedtime and stop drinks after dinner. Well, it's been 3 months of changing sheets every night and with a family vacation to a FL condo coming up at the end of this month, I decided to put her back in pullups until the pullups show up dry in the am. Unfortunately, my daughter has decided to take off her pullup in the middle of the night, and sometimes will go to the living room and...

Reluctant Potty Trainer

wow i can't believe all the "early potty trainers" on here. i actually just read someone saying that if a child isn't potty trained by two, they have lazy parents. i can't believe someone actually said that. my son was walking by age 9 months and has a better vocabulary and manners than many of the adults i meet (yes, even in mighty johnson county, kansas *gasp!*), saying please, thank you, and yes ma'am at 22 months. (most of the people in this county can't even seem to grasp that there are other people on the road, much less be courteous...

18 Mo and Not Eating

Hello everyone! I am desperate for some advice or other opinions. I was inspired to write in from reading the request and responses to Chantel's question. My daughter is 18 months old. We have only fed her pureed foods since she has had problems swallowing (she would gag and throw up with new textures.) But, with the help of a speech therapist, she has made great progress. She can now eat thicker, pureed/mashed foods with lumps and has proven to me that she can bite off and chew just about anything else. The problem is, she won't. I...
