Going crazy!

My daughter is gonna be 3 in May. And I’m having such trouble. She keeps putting her hand down her pull-up and if you know what I mean, I always have to clean her up because she wants to know what is in there. It makes me so mad but I don’t know how to control it. And my family wants her to start potty training, but I don’t know to go about it. I need some tips

I’m just assuming here. That maybe she’s starting to do that because she is aware now that sitting in her poop or per is bugging her. My girl turns 3 in May too. I potty trained her at 2 right after her birthday. I took her a good two weeks for her to get it well. I’d say get her off the pull-ups and go straight for the potty training undies. Let her walk around in it she’ll have accidents but she won’t like it. So she’ll tell you she needs to go so she doesn’t wet her self. Make sure you let her know to let you know she needs to go. That how I did it with my daughter. She had some accidents but she slowly got the hang of it. You might also notice her maybe being scared about pooping or seeing it, but just reassure her it’s okay and poop is going bye bye lol. You’re doing great! 😊

I’ve also heard that pull-ups aren’t as affective, the kids still think it’s a regular diaper.

Yeah definitely sounds like she is ready to potty train. For my son we just got him a little potty seat and then the first few days I would put him on the potty every 30 minutes. Everytime he would go potty I would praise him and remind him pee goes in the potty. If he had an accident (which they definitely will) I would just ask where does pee go and he would say the potty. I definitely second buy her some potty training underwear. Also getting potty training books from the library can help as well. Just constantly talk about going potty try and make it fun and just commit to it. The first few days can be tough but if they are ready to potty train it will start kicking in pretty quick. Also remember that pooping on the potty usually takes kids longer than going pee.
