We are potty training, how can I get my daughter to wear panties?

My daughter just turned two, and we are working on potty training. She has done amazing with it as long as we’re at the house, and she goes naked. How did y’all get them to wear panties? I’ve tried introducing them to her, but she doesn’t even try to go on the potty when she has them on.

I let my daughter pick them out. I took her to the store and showed her all the different character panties. Once she picked them out, she was so excited to wear HER panties. Good luck!

i picked what character she liked and put them on her…we did the “panty method” when potty training. …worked wonders for her

My daughter was like that. She’d use the potty all the time when she was naked. But, as soon as she had panties or a diaper on, she would pee in them.

I put my daughter’s panties on under her diaper. That way, she could feel that she was wet, but it didn’t make a huge mess.

Get her plain ones. Let her color them with washable markers. Put them on her. When she wets them her skin will change colors & her drawing will be ruined. It worked with 1 of mine. Before washing let soak in water so it won’t stain your clothes in the washer.

Hype it up. Make it a big deal. Have her pick out her own big girl panties.

My daughter was really excited about big girl undies and she hated the feeling of having wet clothes so potty training was really easy. I’m nervous about having to potty train my son, though. He’s only a year and a half, though, so I have a little bit of time still but… its coming up quick. Best of luck.

Let her pick out big girl undies and let her know that they are special big girl undies for big girls who use the potty!

Also, incentives work! Make potty time fun so that even with undies on she wants to go. We did mini marshmallows. 1 for pee and 2 for poo. Worked like a charm!

Skip them for a while just use loose shorts Try in a month or so

I just went through the same thing. My two year old would only use the potty if she was completely butt naked. She also would hate it if I tried to put clothes on her. After 8 weeks or so I was able to introduce underwear. I also had to start warning her before we had to leave or had company that she was gonna have to put clothes on. TBH it was a struggle. But consistency, always being positive and an m & m after every potty in the potty was key. I have to watch her like a hawk so she won’t strip when were out. But she’s finally completely potty trained now.

Love this idea! Worked for me as well!

Honestly just keep trying. My daughters been on and off since she turned two. I didn’t want to force her and her not want to use the potty so we’ve done our best to encourage her as often as we can and she’s doing great! Good luck!

Maybe she isn’t quite ready yet to potty train. I started my daughter out when she just turned 2 and she kept peeing in her panties like they were diapers. I don’t think she quite understood what I was wanting from her. We stopped with the training and started back up 6 months later and she took to it easily on our second round.

Yep, I tookmy daughter to Walmart, made a big deal. Let her pick out panties and let her pay for them. It was easier if she wore little dresses instead of pants or shorts too.

Just put them on her. Did it with ours. She will have accidents just keep spare ones off to the side with towel. Put her on the towel after an accident for 2 minutes. Then clean her up. The panties feel weird at first but just go with it. Dont give up. Also every 15 minutes use the potty. Its exhausting but if you do it all at once and just stick with panties itll happen. Good luck!

Let her pick them,
My sister let my niece wear a swimsuit, but if she peed in it she wouldn’t get to go swimming, cause itd be dirty, it worked

Have a sister or friend call the house as her favorite princess character. Princess should talk about how proud she is of the little girl going on the potty etc. really sell it

I bought ruffle butt panties for my daughter, she loved them! Of course she wore them backwards so she could see the ruffles :joy:

Let her pick out “pretty panties” she won’t want to mess up.

She’s only 2. Give it time. As long as she can wipe her own ass for school when she’s 5, y’all r fine…

Let her pick them out at the store

My daughter just turned 2 and I think she has the hang of it now. She also ran around naked and would run to the potty when she had to go. I introduced panties and she didn’t want to wear them and peed in them. So then we just practiced pulling them down and sitting on her potty. After a few days it clicked! Shes been going on her potty now since she was 21 months. Going #2 is a different story. She will not go on the potty . Best of luck :slightly_smiling_face:

Mine turned 3 in March and was completely potty trained just before her birthday. I did the same. Just let her run naked at home. She wore a diaper when we left home and we took it off as soon as we got back. That’s it. I did nothing special. If she wore panties, she peed herself every time. I think after they pee themselves so many times, they realize it’s uncomfortable and that they are making a mess. I would let her clean her own mess up. And remind her to use the potty next time. She gradually got the hang of it. We have no issues now :+1: my youngest is almost 2 now and she is doing awesome as well! I hope it gets better for you! Give her lots of praise and love :heart:

Naked around the house for a couple days. When she goes in the potty give her a special reward maybe a special movie she wanted to watch, icecream etc. Let her pick out her panties and if she dirties them, make her scrub them out.

Our daughter loves Sonic the Hedgehog but they only make boy undies with the character. She loves them and wears them all the time.

I was very firm about it. But every child reacts different. Good luck

I make a big deal out of letting them pick out their favorite character or print, and go for ice cream afterward.

We’re just letting our kiddo go commando. We’re working on teaching here to pull her pants and shorts on and off. We’ll worry about undies later.

Let her watch you put yours on or off??? Even dad???:face_with_hand_over_mouth: have fun with them…songs, rhymes or even being silly with them.

Put her in dresses for a while and then she is covered but still won’t think of the panties like a diaper

Just talk to her and let her know she’s a big girl now…my 2 year old daughter was very excited to wear panties lol…

Put her in a long dress or huge shirt and let it be. She will eventually put them on.

Be fearm go in the bathroom with her tell her this we’re go potty no we’re else

Maybe go to the store or online to order them and have her pick them out. Maybe that will help

Let her pick out one that she likes, she might be more interested if she picks them. My daughter couldn’t wait to wear her new big girl undies especially when she got to pick them herself.

Cloth diapers
Looks like diapers
but it’s more like a panty

I put my daughter’s panties over the Pull-Ups… let her wear them like that for a while till she gets used to the underwear being on and then repetition repetition repetition… make sure you’re taking her to the potty periodically whether she’s at home or out in public to get her used to using the potty whether she has to go or not …the more you get her used to the pattern, going every so often and wearing the panties over her pull-ups , she’ll more likely be used to them and go when shes supposed to. This is what I did with my three girls and had no problem.

Cartoon panties, pretty panties or anything she likes.

Hi, I brought her to the store and made her chose what panties she wanted and it worked for me. Next day no diaper just panties and off to daycare.
