potty training

potty training

Hi.I need some guidance mothers.
My daughter is 2 and 8 months.We started potty training when she was 2 and 4 months.It looked we are almost there.At home she was good with weeing in the potty. Sometimes she had accidents, usually when she was into playing too much and would forget but we were both happy and progressing. With poo we struggled but were working on it. Usually she requested nappy for it and just occasionally would do in the potty.A brother was born when she was 2 and 5 months.We still didn't complete potty training.My mum came and put her back in nappies ! It was too stressful for her(granny). Since then she is in the nappies ,refuses potty. She is confused for sure. There were few occasions lately that she just took of her nappy and went on potty by herself. Two times she did nothing and last 3 times she did wee. She still refuses to use it regularly. What to do now?It seems too long to wait for the summer. Any advice ,please,please?
Thanks

1st things first- tell your mum that it doesnt matter whatshe thinks shes your daughter and you do what you feel is right.  I would take her nappies away from her while in the house and hide them from her, it will be hard at first but she will gradually get used to it.  My eldest (Hope) is 2 1/2 and ive been potty training since she was about 14 months old as she was bringing me her change bag once she had wee'd or pood but she is still a bit too little for using the big toilete yet.  We also have an 8 month old (Faith) and at first it was hard to be looking after her and trying to keep hope on the potty but its been fine and she has gotten used to not wearing a nappy while at home, she still wears one whilst out and about but im not sure how to get her out of that. but anyway yeah take them away from her while at home and only put one on whilst your out and about but tke it off as soon as you get home.  always praise her for telling you she needs a wee or poo or if she uses her potty, if she wees on the flor tell her it was bad and show her the potty.  if she poos in her nappy just calmly say "now you were supposed to tell mummy when you needed a wee or a poo" . 

I hope this helps you and i hope all goes well with you and your kids! x

Hello, my son was 17 months wen he stopped using nappies and he did so in 2 days! I found that all the messing around with pottys and nappies sometimes then pants annother was confusing him so instead, my partner and i decided just to take his nappie off one night, lead him to the toilet and told him what a big boy he was now and therefor could use the " big peoples toilet" he did a pee then first thing in the morning we lead him back again to have annother go! i did this every hour untill he got used to it and by the second day, he was telling me when he needed. He also took great pleasure in putting his old nappies in the bin and waving goodbye!

just make sure that she goes to the toilet everynight straight before bed!

I hope this helps!

Thank you for advice.I think we will take off the nappy as soon as virus is gone(having cough,blocked nose) and get our sofa and chairs ready for accidents.
My daughter is very strong character and in period when she is challenging everything what I say,a lot due to being bored. When I say something what she has done is not nice,she doesn't care much. She sees all her misbehaviour as adventure and play,to make something happening , even making mummy angry or unhappy is fun.I wonder how will we do with correcting accidents?

Thank you everyone for support.
She is without nappies in the house for 3 days.We are stuck with poo. Didn't do it at all for 3 days and today wants to poo but is struggling. It's hard and she is crying.I think I will give her a spoon of lactulose to help her.
