Today we made our first proper go at potty training 2.2yo DD. Had no nappy time/sits on potty before but we gave it a full on crack today.
She sat on the potty whenever we told/asked her to for a decent length of time. We read, sang songs, rolled a ball etc and she got a sticker for sitting. So far so good. After 2 hours this morning she hadn't done anything, accident or in potty. When we put her nappy on just before nap time she wee'd within 5 minutes. After her nap she didn't have a nappy on all afternoon and carried on sitting on the potty beautifully and even did a big poo. Loads of oraise, extra sticker and a chocolate button. She was so proud of herself and genuinely seemed really pleased at what she had done. However she didn't wee all afternoon. From 2:15-7:00 not a dingle drop of wee. She drank plenty.
I know in the morning her nappy will be sopping wet. I've heard of withholding poo but how normal is it to withhold wee? How can I get her to actually wee? When we've done no nappy mornings/afternoons before we've always had accidents which I never made a fuss about so it's not like she thinks it's bad to wee.
Thanks!
