My daughter is 2 (will be 3 in november) and will not potty train… I’ve tried all the tricks ive been told to try. Sticker chart, prizes, encouragement, celebration when she does go. But it doesn’t stick. She’s recently gotten into the habit of taking her pullup off at random times without saying anything and just peeing where ever. I know they say they will go in their own pace but it just feels like I’m failing her. My two boys were roughly 3 when they were fully out of pullups and everyone had said girls are easier to potty train than boys but this girl is wayyyy harder

Sounds like she knows what she is doing. She’s just being naughty. I know what my solution would be but I’m old school.

Put her in panties during the day not pull-ups unless you leave the house. Keep reminding her she is a big girl and take her with you when you go potty. Ask her often if she needs to potty . If she does good all day give her a special treat after dinner

She isnt ready. My son was completely trained at 2 1/2 but my daughter was almost 4. Don’t push it or you can cause a regression.
Focus on catching all the poos first
Toss the pull ups and prepare for a lot of clean up!

Mine didn’t know they needed a wee until they were five. We managed to get them using the toilet by taking them regularly. Yours is clearly not ready yet.
She’ll potty train when she’s ready
My Niece was advanced at 2 and a half and at Nursery they said about helping start potty training her but after a day of about 3 messy poops in her pants, they soon realised just cos she was advanced in speech etc, didn’t mean she was ready to potty train…
We did start again when she was about 3 and she got it straight away. Her Twin Brother was in pull ups at night till aged 7…They both have Autism.
I’d by-pass the potty and use the toilet , both of mine used to follow me to the toilet and that’s how they got the hang of it
My son didn’t fully potty train until he was 4. He wasn’t ready. I wasn’t really in a rush to potty train because he wasn’t going to daycare.
We would turn on Paw Patrol or similar cartoons that had commercials. Every time it cut to commercial we would go to the potty. It worked pretty well for us.

For a girl to potty trained I keep her in living room and kitchen. Bedrooms door closed only one bathroom open so she has access to go potty. I set up a step by toilet and other step for the sink to wash hands. I take off the diaper/ pull-ups and put her in a long T-shirt or a dress to her knees if she peed on the floor just say no this is not nice pee pee go to toilet toilet need drink. Same for pooping time. I always have the swifter ready and bottle spray to clean it when she go bed I mopped the floor but it is only in the living room/ kitchen just bring out her books and toys to living room it helps a lot.
dont use pull ups the padding makes them feel like a diaper stick underware on her have her use bathroom 10-15 min after drinking or take her potty everytime u go i have 8 kids n this method worked on all my kiddos even my non verbal son good luck mama
Pull ups is a waste of money.put her in panties and stick to it.
She’s just not ready. My oldest was potty trained at 18 months during the day and fully potty trained by 2 but my twins just wasn’t ready till a few months before their 3rd birthday.
Don’t force it. She will go when she is ready. You can still take her to the bathroom when you go or when you she needs to. I promise she will do it when she is ready. I tried forever with my daughter. She finally got the hang of it a couple of months before her 3rd birthday
I used the timer on my diabetic checker. When it beeped, it was time to use the potty. It made her want to do it, not me “telling” her. And I did start out at 15-30 mins apart. It was no big deal if she didn’t go, and that helped her realize she was in control.
Read the book “Oh Crap” and follow the method. Good luck!
My daughter wasn’t potty trained until she was 4. Don’t rush it
She obviously isn’t ready, don’t force it
Underwear instead of pull ups and keeping their potty in the living room sometimes helps bc they don’t get as distracted and are more encouraged to go. But if she isn’t ready don’t stress it. She will go when she’s ready. All 4 of mine were different. And my boy was the easiest lol done day and night in three days. The girls took longer to train for during the night.
Don’t stress she will learn to go to the toilet and I bet she won’t be in nappys at 18 lol
I got rid of pull ups. Day and night. First 3 days she was naked. I took her potty every 20 minutes and 10 minutes after she drank. She slept in a sweater. I put puppy potty pads on her mattress the 3rd day I put underwear on her and explained to her when she has an accident it’s going to be up to her to clean it up. She will wipe her self with wipes and change her underwear and assist me with cleaning the floor. Only had to do that once and she hated that. By day 5 she was fully potty trained day and night. I told her when she’s potty trained we would have a special potty party 
for her. We did she got cupcakes and ice cream and a few small gifts and balloons. Never had an accident again.
Pull ups are basically the same as wearing a nappy. Try going straight to knickers. Mine was 2 years 9 months when she was fully potty trained and it took a week of my full attention (it was lockdown) I put her on the potty every 10 minutes until she used it. Then did the same from an hour later. After 2 or 3 days of the same repetitive behaviours she knew when she needed the potty and only a couple of accidents. I found that it was when she was engrossed in play so needed lots of reminders. Like I say it only took 1 week altogether and she was dry night and day. I also upped drink intake during that time so she’d know what the sensation of needing the toilet felt like. But every child is different
Mine had just turned 3 and wanted to use potty. She did it all herself in her own time. Took a week to be day and night trained.
Have her wear under wear or nothing at all. Then when she slips and falls in her pee and has pee all over her she won’t want to continue to that much longer, I have 5 girls and 1 boy and this is how I trained all of them, by switching straight to undies at age 2 and when they soooed themselves they hated it so much they made sure to use the potty
Take a break and try again in a couple months. Get her big girl pants for a Birthday gift
What others have said she’s not ready don’t force it!!! When she’s ready u will know…try again in a few months!! My oldest took quite some time to fully potty train for both…my youngest was fully potty trained in a week even at night…both boys…all kiddos are different!!
She is not ready. Most don’t until 3.5.
Wait til she’s really ready. It’s the only real advice. If she’s not truly ready, at best you are training yourself to remind her. Kids are ready at all different times - many are 4 or close to it. I’ve potty trained five kids - both boys and girls - trust me on this. Bonus: when they’re really ready it takes days, not weeks or months.
Ditch the pull ups, they only hinder the process. Get her in knickers so she can tell. I never used pull ups with my 2 girls. Have lots of spares for the few days ahead and they soon realise the difference and will want to go to the toilet x hope this helps
