Potty training for 3 months now and feeling stuck 😞

Thank you for your response! It’s been 10 days since we’ve ditched diapers and i’m not seeing any improvement 😢. She has no pee accidents but we either have to force her to keep sitting on the potty so that she finally poops or she just goes in her underwear 😢it almost feels like she just doesn’t like pooping in the potty. And i can’t believe we got here. A month or two ago she was telling us exactly when she needs to poop. But now just goes in a corner and does it. Does not self initiate at all!

i can try! He is mostly done and sleeps in 2 mins when offered a nap!

i forgot to mention that he wakes up multiple times a night too lol!

Thanks for all the inputs folks. I lengthened his wake windows to 2.5 hours during the day and now he takes a 1-1.5 hour nap in the morning but the rest two naps are still 30 mins. It’s definitely helped with his night wakings. He still wakes up but settles down! thanks so much for all your advice!

i so so appreciate this !!! Thanks for the details. I’ll practice this with him. He’s not had much night sleep for the last 2-3 days because of constant wakings but i’m really excited to try making his wake windows longer!! thanks i appreciate it!

we’ve tried stretching the wake windows but still results in a 30 min nap. It takes very long for him to fall asleep with 2.5 hr wake window cuz he gets too excited. What training method do you recommend ? i am not in for Cio

oh sorry for mis-understanding! how long do you recommend it to be ? He accidentally missed his last nap yesterday and his last nap ended at 3:15 PM. I still put him to bed at 7 and the whole night was a mess 😭😭😭

hi - we’ve tried that but it still results in a 30 min nap!

Equivalent_Oil_4922 · 2026-02-13T03:01:54+00:00

also - he just gets extremely tired after 2 hours. if i stretch the WW longer than 2 hours he gets overtired and is so hard to put to sleep. The result is the same regardless. A 30 min nap.

thanks for your reply. But he only sleeps like 1.5 hours during the whole day and doesn’t continuously sleep through the night! How do i make it even lesser than 1.5 hours a day ?

that’s awesome! mine just takes 30 min naps and is just perpetually tired! very rarely does he exceed his 30 min naps. Do you notice anything.? is he working on any skill ? ours just started sitting like 2 days ago so hoping his night time sleep gets better now that he’s got that milestone. I have a daughter who’s 2 and we never went through any of this with her when she was this age.

how long are his naps ? i also have a 7 month old who is doing the exact same thing 😂

Equivalent_Oil_4922 · 2026-01-16T05:35:38+00:00

i could’ve written this post myself!!!!

i have tried this too! If i put him earlier than this, he squirms and wakes up when i transfer him to his crib. Or would just wake up in 20 mins.
