15 Steps to Potty Train a Stubborn Toddler Girl in 3 Days

Potty train a stubborn toddler girl in 3 days – learn how to do it with your sanity intact.

Potty training is one of the most dreaded and looked forward to phases in the life of a parent.

On the one hand you’re really looking forward to not having to deal with any more stinky diapers. No more diaper changes. No more dustbins overflowing with smelly diapers. Hello freedom!

But on the other hand…you just don’t want to go through the difficult and exhausting process of potty training a child.

Especially if you have a stubborn child.

I literally remember wishing I could hire someone to get the task done for me!

But now that I’m on the other side of the fence, here’s a little truth I’d like to share with you.

Potty training a toddler isn’t half as terrible as I’d imagined. If you’ve done your research, have a plan in mind and are physically and mentally prepared then it’s actually a very straightforward process.

This post is all about how to potty train a stubborn toddler girl in 3 days.

Disclaimer: I’m not a toilet training “expert”. Ive just researched on this topic A LOT because I wanted that before I started the process with my kids I was armed with knowledge and had a clear plan in my head.

After successfully potty training both my (stubborn) toddler girls in 3 days, I’d like to share with you the exact strategies I applied and what actually works.

The 3 Day Potty Training Method

While there are many potty training strategies out there, I chose the 3 Day Method.

And let me tell you, it WORKS.

Yes, even with stubborn kids.

Both my girls were stubborn toddler girls and both of them were fully potty trained in 3 days.

As a parent, what I love about this method is that it’s quick. In 3 days flat you’re done. Yes there will continue to be accidents here and there but by and large you’re done.

These are the things you need to do before you start off. Once you’ve got these things checklisted, you’ll find the process of potty training SO much easier.

1. Start when your child is ready

It’s really important to potty train a stubborn toddler when they’re ready.

If you start too early you’ll find that they don’t quite even understand what is going on. Or if you start too late they might be so used to wearing diapers and find it difficult to make the transition.

So what’s the ideal age to start potty training your child? It varies from child to child, because they all develop at a different pace.

According to experts, most children are ready to potty train anywhere between 18-36 months.

Like drinking from a cup or using a spoon, using the potty is a skill that must be learned. It is best accomplished when your child’s emotional and physical development is at a certain point.

I tried starting at the age of 2 with my first born (all my friends with 2 year olds had already started and that made me feel like I should start too! ).

But I quickly found out that my toddler couldn’t grasp the concept of potty training.

After a few very unproductive and exhausting days I realized she simply wasn’t ready and I should start again in a few months.

When I started training her at the age of two and a half she was totally ready. She understood what was going on, was eager to take on the challenge and was totally trained by day 3.

When is a toddler ready to potty train?

There are certain readiness signs which can indicate your child is ready to start toilet training. These signs include:

• being able to walk to the toilet and sit on it
• being able to pull their pants up and down
• being able to communicate with you when they need to go
• ability to understand and follow basic instructions
• taking their wet diaper off themselves because they feel uncomfortable
• showing an interest in using the toilet
• telling you when their diaper is dirty
• having bowel movements at regular times
• having a dry diaper for about 2 hours in the day time

2. You have to be mentally prepared

It’s not enough for your child to be ready. YOU need to be mentally ready too. 3 day potty training is totally doable but it’s not for the faint hearted. Especially if you’re trying to potty train a stubborn toddler girl with strong opinions about everything.

It’s tiring and messy.

It requires energy, 3 days of being very focused on the task at hand and most of all being present with your child while having a positive attitude.

If you’re travelling/ have a lot going on in your life then it’s best to wait a while.

If anything big and new is on the horizon in your lives, reconsider potty training right now. Wait until life settles down and the normal flow of activity resumes. This creates security for your child and helps them place toileting easily alongside other normal routines.

verwellfamily

When my second child was about 2 years old she was showing all the signs of being ready to train. But I was on a 3 month vacation at the time. Our shedule was totally off and I was not at all mentally prepared to deal with all the mess associated with toilet training. So I decided to wait till I was mentally ready too. And boy am I glad I did!

3. Pick a weekend or ideally 3 days

You need to pick a weekend or ideally 3 days where you are absolutely free. Like ABSOLUTELY.

You can’t have any other commitments.

No grocery shopping, running errands or even long conversations on the phone. Your whole focus for 3 days days has to be this.

Prepare for this weekend at least a week in advance.

Do the groceries, cook batches of food and run your important errands so you’re free for those 2-3 days.

Instead of thinking of it as a chore “Oh crap I can’t do anything productive for 3 days” try to rephrase it in your brain to something like “My kid and I get to hang out in our pjs all day, eat yummy snacks and play games together while we train. This is going to be fun”

It sounds silly or unbelievable to think that anyone could have fun while doing something so UN FUN.

But the power of thought is a real thing.

I tried to think of it in my head as 3 days of chilling rather than 3 days of freaking out and it made such a HUGE difference in my ability to stay calm throughout those 3 days.

4. Get your supplies ready

Okay so your child is ready to train and so are you. Great! Now you need to put together the stuff you’ll need to actually start training.

Now there are a ton of supplies out there being marketed as ” potty training must haves” but a lot of it is extras which you can do without especially if you’re on a tight budget.

Here are the 7 most important things you need when getting started:

1. Potty Chair OR Potty Seat

You can either opt for a Realistic looking Toddler Sized Potty Chair (that really helps getting kids excited about training) OR opt for a Potty Seat Insert (that fits right on top of the regular toilet)

2. Single or Double Step Stool

I’ve used both the Dream Baby Single Step Stool and the Dream Baby Double Step Stool for my girls and love that they are sturdy with a non-slip base

3. Lots of underwear (ideally with your child’s favorite character on it)

4. Supplies to clean up accidents

I got a basket and put my cleaning supplies inside so that i was totally ready to tackle the inevitable messes. I found that microfiber cloths, disinfectant spray and flushable wet wipes were ideal for clean ups.

5. Something for reward

With my kids I found that small treats worked the best for a reward. Some ideas include: Annie’s Organic Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites and Annie’s Organic Berry Patch Bunny Fruit Snacks

6. Tools to get your child super excited about training

Getting your child into a positive mindset in which they are actually eager to start training is the fundamental secret to successful potty training.

Unfortunately so many parents miss out on this absolute essential!

Check out this potty training bundle filled with goodies designed to get your child super excited to start training.

7. Sheet protectors

Sheet protectors are going to be your new best friend for the coming months (most likely even years!)

They are absolutely crucial during night training but also essential during day time training if your toddler still takes naps during the day.

Trying to scrub out pee stains from a mattress is about the most horrible punishment a  parent can be subjected to.

So getting high quality sheet protectors is a MUST.

I tried so many sheet protector on Amazon and they were all terrible. My daughter would pee and it would leak right through the “waterproof sheets”, and into the mattress.

I started researching and found this waterproof matress protector sheet on Amazon and it has been nothing short of AMAZING.

The sheet literally doesn’t let a single drop of water touch the surface of the mattress. It’s pure genius and works exactly the way a “waterproof sheet” should.

So please do yourself a huge favour and get a waterproof mattress protector before you start training!

Ps: if quality is what you’re after, then nothing will beat these organic sheet protectors from Naturepedic.

They are on a higher price point but absolutely worth every penny especially if you want to keep your child’s bed clean and fresh without chemical worries.

Made from two layers of organic cotton jersey and a waterproof barrier in the center, the pad easily mimics the comfort of the mattress.

The coolest part is it utilizes a dry sleep technology which basically blocks any liquids from passing through while allowing some water vapor to escape. This helps reduce sweating while also providing a full waterproof protection. 

What is the difference between a potty chair and potty seat?

A potty chair is a toddler sized toilet and is used separately from the regular adult toilet. It is portable and can even be taken along on trips. A potty seat on the other hand is an insertable seat that you place directly on top of the regular toilet.

Which one should you choose? This is a long debate. Both have their pros and cons and each parent/child has their own preference.

As for me, I prefer the potty seat which fits directly on top of the regular toilet. My biggest reason is hygiene. I feel its just cleaner and less of a hassle to clean when your child is directly using a regular toilet. Plus there’s no transition that way where you need to train them to use the regular toilet instead of the portable one.

The exception to this is if you’re training a younger toddler. In that case the small sized potty chair is a lot less intimidating to use rather than the regular toilet. At the end of the day theres no right and wrong in this regard so just go with what suits your family.

5. Explain potty training to your child

A 2 year old has pooped and peed in their diaper since the day they were born. So it’s no wonder that they have absolutely NO idea what it means to even start potty training.

It is crucial to explain the whole process to your little one in a simple way that is easy to understand and is also FUN and gets them excited about starting training.

You can do this in several ways:

• Read books about toilet training with your child. There are some wonderful toilet training books out there. I read several books with my toddler which she really enjoyed.
• Doing potty training activities. While reading books is a great way to explain potty training to your child, it’s not a hands-on kind of method because it doesn’t involve any participation from your child. Doing potty training activities is a brilliant alternative because it gets kids involved, engrossed and most of all EXCITED. Check out this Potty Training Activity Booklet in which kids trace, color, match, sort, giggle and laugh as they learn all about potty training the fun way.

• Let your toddler observe how you use the toilet. Explain what’s going on. Make a big show of how you press the flush button and then wash your hands clean.
• Use a potty training doll. Many parents have had tons of success by using a potty training doll to help their kids understand potty training. This can be very effective to not only explain potty training to your toddler but to also get them super excited and involved in the whole training. Using a potty training doll is a particularly effective strategy when potty training a stubborn toddler girl.

6. Get your toddler excited

Once your child understands what potty training is all about, it’s time to get her all excited. Tell her she’ll start training tomorrow and it’s going to be so much fun.

Here are some ideas:

1. Reward charts

Reward charts are an excellent way to motivate a child. You can give them stickers each time they do something on the potty. Once they collect a certain number of stickers they can get a small present. I have designed some awesome potty training dino and fairy charts for you that you can get for FREE in your inbox. You’re welcome 🙂

2. Treats

Candy and small treats are another way to motivate a child. And nopes there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with using candy as a reward! In fact, if your toddler is fond of sweet treats then this can be one of the most effective ways to motivate them to use the potty.

“Positive reinforcement in the form of treats can be an effective part of toilet training…but you only want to use them for short periods of time. Using rewards like this should only last for a month at most.”

Pediatrician Amy Sniderman, MD

cleveland clinic

3. A trip to… (the park, mall, their friend’s house)

Each parent knows their child best.

You need to figure out what encourages your child and really motivates them.

Whatever it is, let them know that they will get it each time they do something in the potty.

If youre dealing with a stubborn toddler then this step is CRITICAL.

Stubborn kids don’t like being told what to do.

But just like any other kid there are certain things that will motivate them. Your job as a parent is to figure out what it is that encourages them.

You could give them a small reward like chocolate candy each time they get it right.

Or you could give them a sticker each time and then give a bigger present like a trip to the park once they’ve collected enough stickers.

The approach you take is entirely up to you.

I knew while training both my girls that simply stickers alone would not cut it.

So I used a combination of BOTH a reward chart and small treats (like chocolate raisins or jelly beans).

Each time they got it right they’d get 1 sticker and 1 jelly bean. This approach worked amazingly for me in potty training a stubborn toddler girl.

Do reward charts work for potty training?

Reward charts are a great tool for motivating your child during potty training. They can help get your toddler excited about training and build positive reinforcement.

How do you use a reward chart for potty training?

The way it works: every time your toddler successfully uses the potty you reward them with a sticker which they can place on the empty box on the chart.

The sticker can be a reward in itself. Or you can let them collect stickers and get a bigger present for a certain number of stickers collected.

How to Potty Train a Stubborn Toddler Girl in 3 Days – Training Day #1

Okay so you’ve done all the prep work. Great job! Now that you and your toddler are both ready and you have everything you need, it’s time to start.

Remember to remind yourself: breathe in, breathe out. You’ve got this!

Nutshell of what you’ll do on Day 1:

So in summary, this is what you’ll do the whole day.

You’ll pick an area of the house that is near the bathroom and spend all day in that space.

You’ll offer your toddler plenty of fluids and keep putting them on the potty seat frequently. Then you’ll reward them each time they do anything on the potty.

7. Decide on area for potty training

You need to pick which area of the house you’ll be training in.

That’s because you don’t want accidents all over the place.

If you’re using a potable potty then you can be more flexible with which area you pick (such as the backyard if it’s good weather).

If you’re using the regular toilet then you need to make sure that the area you pick is very near the toilet so your toddler can easily get there in time.

You want to stay away from carpettted flooring because cleaning out accidents from carpets is a million times harder than cleaning from hardwood floors.

Fold away any rugs lying about.

As for carpets that can’t be folded, a great hack is to cover them up with a waterproof sheet so that it’s easy to clean up accidents.

8. Set up the area

You’ve defined your space. Now make yourselves comfy.

Get yourself a cup of coffee, tea, your phone, a book to read… whatever keeps you happy and busy.

Also get your toddler’s toys, books or whatever activities that keep her busy and within the area you have defined.

You don’t want her roaming around all over the house anywhere that’s too far away from the bathroom.

A great way to keep your toddler busy in some quiet time activity is to use a Potty Training Busy Book .

That way she’ll learn about the potty training process, get excited to be a big girl and ditch the diapers (added bonus- she will stay in one spot without you having to constantly chase her! 🙂

Check out the Potty Training Busy Book – your little one will absolutely love the potty training activities inside!

9. Loose pants, cotton underwear or bare bottom

Everything’s set up so it’s time to go cold turkey now.

Take off your toddler’s diaper and throw it away.

Tell her she’s a big girl now and won’t be wearing diapers anymore.

So what should she wear while training now that the diapers are off?

Some parents go bare bottomed where the child is only wearing a shirt and nothing underneath for all 3 days.

This makes it easy for them to quickly access the potty.

Other parents opt for cotton underwear while others go for loose pants that are easy to pull up and down. The decision is up to you.

I think using cotton underwear is a great choice because it can really help in potty training.

You can choose ones that are easy to pull up and down.

Also, you can get ones with cartoon characters/images that your child really likes.

Then tell them that they have to keep the unicorn /princess/kitty dry and not pee on them.

I tried this with my toddler and it REALLY motivated her to keep herself dry. She kept excitedly saying, “look mom, kitty is dry!” every time she used the potty correctly.

Pro Tip:

I would say that don’t put on pull ups during training.

They have the same texture as a diaper and will hinder your child’s training because the material absorbs the urine and it won’t allow your child to recognize that they’ve had an accident and wet themselves.

You can use pull ups during nap time and at night time when she’s sleeping.

10. Offer your toddler lots of fluids

Now that the training has begun, you need to try to make your toddler pee as much as possible. Offer your little one lots of fluids.

You could get them a cute sippy cup or straw bottle of their choice and keep encouraging them to drink from it.

In order to potty train a stubborn toddler girl, this is a clever way to get her to drink more water (rather than nagging her and in turn giving her a chance to get more stubborn and say no).

Pro Tip:

I’d advise you to stay away from giving too much store bought juice which can cause a tummy ache.

Instead, give plain water, milk or other home made drinks like lemonade or a fruit smoothie. Alternatively, you could give her snacks which make you feel thirsty like crackers or pretzels.

11. Use timer to keep putting your child on the potty

Your toddler is out of diapers and drinking lots of fluids, so now the real training starts ie putting her on the potty.

How frequently should you put her?

In the beginning of the first day, start off by putting her on the potty every 10-15 minutes.

Set a timer and keep putting her on it again and again. Slowly start increasing the time to around 20-30 minutes.

Once you take off the diaper, set a timer and plan to take your child to the bathroom every 20 or 30 minutes. One of the main causes of potty training accidents is because the child is having too much fun or is too engrossed in play to listen to their body and make it to the bathroom in time.

kandookids

At this stage, don’t ask her if she wants to go or not (that’s because she can’t recognize her body’s need to go since she has just started training).

Instead, let the timer ring and say in an excited voice, “Yayyy, time to go potty!”.

To keep things interesting, use a cute potty training timer like this one to get your kid excited about listening to the timer and running to the potty on time.

Pro Tip:

You need to sound super enthusiastic.

Like your child needs to see your face and think “wow mom/dad’s so excited, we must be doing something so cool”.

I don’t think I can emphasize this enough.

The secret trick to making sure you come out of this 3 day training successfully is to make sure your child is participating enthusiastically.

What you absolutely DON’T want is to be forcing your child to be sitting on the potty.

If they’re being resistant and refusing to go sit then the worst thing you can do is get mad and force them to go.

If that’s happening you need to STOP what you’re doing.

Go back to the earlier steps where you’re mentally preparing your toddler for the training and getting them excited to try it out.

If your child refuses to go, forcing them to go and sit on the potty will likely create a negatively charged atmosphere and can ultimately lead to more resistance.

12. Reward reward reward

So you’re offering your child lots of liquids and putting them on the potty every 15 minutes.

They are bound to have some successes!

Make sure that every time your little one pees on the potty you make a BIG DEAL out of it.

You need to act like your child has won the Nobel Peace Prize.

You need to squeal with joy, dance, high five and act like they’ve done the most incredible thing ever (I did all of those things and more!).

Then once they’ve washed their hands, give them their reward (a sticker on the chart or a piece of candy or both).

Keep reiterating how proud you are and how you can’t wait for her to do it again.

Pro Tip:

It’s important to make sure that you give them the reward immediately after they’ve had a successful trip.

This is so that they can connect peeing on the potty with the reward they just received which will positively reinforce them.

13. Be prepared for accidents

Your toddler will have some successes but also some accidents.

You need to be physically and mentally prepared to handle this.

It’s definitely the grossest and hardest part about having to potty train a stubborn toddler girl but if you’re ready then it’s not so terrible.

What really worked for me was chanting positive affirmations in my head.

I kept saying to myself: “There will be accidents. I will not flip out, I will be calm”

It may sound silly but chanting this REALLY helped me stay sane. The thing with positive affirmations is that you need to be able to see it otherwise you forget to use it. You can find some super prettily designed affirmations here as part of our potty training bundle.

You can print it, put it up on the fridge, bathroom door or anywhere else where you can keep glancing at it frequently.

Also, make sure you have your cleaning supplies ready. Keep a disinfectant spray and separate cleaning cloth just for cleaning up accidents. Disinfecting wipes are also handy in cleaning up messes quickly.

As I mentioned earlier, waterproof mattress sheet protectors are going to be your new best friend and cut down your cleaning time by half.

If your toddler takes afternoon naps and you don’t want them to go back to wearing diapers during that time, having a sheet protector will be life saving.

It’s super important to opt for organic protector pads that are free of all nasty chemicals.

Every time your toddler has an accident, say something like “Oops, the pee is all over the floor! Let’s do it on the potty next time so we can get our reward”.

Pro Tip:

Don’t use an angry tone when addressing their accident. At the same time, don’t sound casual and say “oh it’s not a big deal you peed on the carpet” because that will make it seem like it’s okay.

Also, if they have an accident DON’T give them a reward (even if they whine and beg) because that will completely defeat the whole point of the rewarrd system.

Few things are worse for a child than letting her parents down. So don’t add more tension to potty training by showing disapproval when your daughter doesn’t get it right away; doing so can only make potty training harder.

14. Journal it down

Most guides to potty train a stubborn toddler girl in 3 days don’t mention this tip.

However it’s a strategy that I personally used and found it immensely helpful.

Every time my toddler peed or pooped (on the potty or on the floor), I wrote it down on my potty training tracker sheet.

I noted down the exact time it happened and then made a tick mark or a cross depending on where it happened.

The biggest help this gives you is the ability to see your child’s frequency of needing to go to the potty. This in turn helps you adjust your timer accordingly and hence cut down on the number of accidents significantly.

Are you looking for a potty training method that is 100% respectful, gentle, and easily
adaptable for ANY child, family situation, or schedule?

A unique, much-loved by parents potty course using a method that avoids bribing and shaming your children, and skips the endless power struggles, accidents, and frustration.

15. Night time training

Some parents opt to do day time potty training and night time training together while others prefer to focus only on day time training.

In my opinion, trying to do both together is way too exhausting for a parent to handle. However it’s up to you to decide which approach to take.

If youre doing night time training then you’ll:

• Stop giving any liquids 1 hour before bedtime

• Make sure your child pees on the potty before getting into bed
• Cover the bed with a chemical free sheet protector (to prevent pee getting on the mattress or sheets)
• Put 2 alarms for the middle of the night and wake your child up to put them on the potty

If youre skipping night time training during these 3 days then you can just put your little one in some diapers or training pants before they get into bed.

Here is a detailed post I wrote on night time training.

Day 2 & 3: Potty train a stubborn toddler girl in 3 days

Day 2 and Day 3 will be very similar to Day 1 with just a few changes.

One of the things I stopped doing on day 2 and 3 was giving tons of liquids.

I wanted her to eat and drink how much she’d normally have on a regular day and then observe how frequently she needed to use the potty.

I observed her cycle, wrote it down in my potty training tracker sheet and saw she needed to use it every 40 minutes.

But if she drank water or milk then she needed to go about 20 minutes afterwards. So I adjusted my timer accordingly.

This approach worked amazingly because I had a clear idea of her cycle and was able to put her on the potty every time she had to actually go.

This helped her have tons of successes.

In fact because of this tracker, on Day 2 we had 14 successes and 0 accidents!

I almost wept with joy! 🙂

And that’s it.

That was your ultimate guide to potty train a stubborn toddler girl in just 3 days.

Trust me I’ve done every single step I’ve written above and it does work. I really hope these tips help you as much as they helped me!

Frequently Asked Questions About How to Potty Train A Stubborn Toddler Girl in 3 Days

Why won’t my toddler sit on the potty?

Feeling fearful or overwhelmed are the two biggest reasons your toddler is resisting sitting on the potty. There could be fear of releasing pee or poop in a potty rather than the snug diaper. Your child could also be feeling overwhelmed by your constant reminders to sit on the potty.

How to get toddler to sit on potty longer?

There are several tactics you can use to get your toddler to sit on the potty longer. You can read them books, blow bubbles or sing songs together. Do things that help them relax and feel comfortable on the potty seat.

How long should a 2 year old sit on the potty?

If your child sits on the potty too briefly then it may not be long enough for them to do anything. But if you make them sit for too long it could make them avoid sitting on the potty. 3-5 minutes is enough to make them relieve themselves and also not get very bored.

What do you do when your child refuses to sit on the potty?

The best thing you can do if your toddler is refusing to sit on the potty is to back off. Take a break from potty training for a few weeks.

Focus your energy on preparing your child to get excited about potty training. Do potty training activities with them like these and then re start in a few weeks.

Should I force my toddler to sit on the potty?

You should never force your toddler to sit on the potty. That’s because toddlers react with resistance when they feel pressured. This will perpetuate a negative cycle that will only hinder your child’s potty training.

How often should I sit my toddler on the potty?

Use a journal to keep a track of approximately how frequently your toddler needs to go to the potty. Then set a timer accordingly. Usually toddlers that are potty training need to be put on the potty every 20-30 minutes.

Is it OK to take a break from potty training?

It is definitely alright to take a break from potty training. In fact, experts recommend that if your toddler is showing resistance to potty training then it’s best to stop and re start in a few weeks or months.

When should I stop potty training and try later?

If you find that your toddler hates potty training, is resisting sitting on the potty or refuses to keep sitting on the potty then it’s a sign for you to stop. This is particularly true if potty training has become into a struggle between you and your toddler.

When should you call it quits with potty training?

You don’t need to call it quits with potty training. Rather, you need to stop training, wait a few weeks or months and wait till your toddler is ready.

Is the second day of potty training worse than first?

For some parents, the second day of potty training is actually worse than the first because the excitement of rewards and praise has worn off. Your toddler starts having more accidents than on Day 1 which leaves you feeling demotivated.

How do you get toddler to tell you they have to potty?

Use rewards and a lot of praise to encourage your toddler to tell you they have to potty. Sound really enthusiastic when they say they need to go and keep reminding them of how they’ll be rewarded when they go to the potty.

When should I stop giving my toddler potty treats?

If you’re using treats to reward your toddler during potty training, then continue giving them for at least the first week. Once your toddler is consistently peeing on the potty and having infrequent accidents you can gradually stop giving the treats.

I hope this guide helps you in your potty training journey and I hope you found the tips super helpful. Remember to grab your FREE potty training reward chart below. Happy training! 🙂
