I know this sounds harsh, but you need to put her in panties I think pull ups are a cop out. If you are worried about the mess put rubber pants over. I trained all 4 of my kids this way and they trained quickly night and day. Is your daughter a stubborn child? Have you tried the reward thing this might work. I just finished training 2 of my dayhome kids they are both done night and day. We used the reward system 1 gummie bear for pee and2 for poop. They were both done in about 1.5 weeks. Also lots of praise, try a new potty that she picks out and let her decorate it with stickers. If she feels she's important and a big girl you'll have her done in no time Best of luck and don't give up Remember NO PULL UPS LOL
Ramona, if she's 3 1/2, isn't she too young for kindergarten in September?
Actually, kindergarten goes by age, so all the kids born in 2003 will be starting Junior Kindergarten in September. She is born in December so therefor she will be starting at the age of 3.
It's important that you know that a large number of children are not trained by the age of your daughter, though most are. If you want to eliminate the pull-ups, then do so entirely. Going half-way is not working, so it's sensible to alter your strategy. An alternative course would be to return to pull-ups and set a date on which you would eliminate them. It's OK to talk with your daughter about 'getting ready' for her pre-school program and how children must be able to use the toilet in order to attend the school. Does your daughter voice any particular alarm or fear concerning the toilet? I take it that what happens now is that she waits until she has the pull-ups and then urinates. So eliminating that option might be your best bet, but do so in a suportive, patient and understanding manner.
