Potty regression

I'm having this issue with my kiddo at night time and I even asked her doctor. Doc said it's a phase and basically just wait it out but do your best not to show that it bothers you. Basically ignore it. I have my kiddo wear a pullup for bedtime.

I wish it was at bedtime otherwise I’d do that but it’s during the day and she has different activities/ classes that require her to be potty trained to go to and idk what to do about it anymore. My biggest issue isn’t the accident it’s that she hides it and lies about her having an accident. I have to litteraly feel her underwear multiple times a day now because she won’t tell us.

@Krystin I'm so sorry. Potty training can be so tough. There are so many reasons for why she could be hiding it and lying about it too and it's hard to narrow down for us parents.

My daughter is also 4 and has been having potty regressions. It gets to the point where I get so frustrated because she doesn't tell me or she'll just act like "whatever" . I can say it has gotten to me and I have gotten upset and yelled at her. I do take a minute to relax and apologize for how I responded and then let her know if she keeps doing it that she's going to lose screen time or toys until she's able to go a week without just going potty somewhere. I also had to get back into the habit of telling her to go to the bathroom every hour or so. I used to ask her "do you need to go potty?" She would tell me no all the time and then a few minutes later go, so now I just tell her "go potty" if she tells me she doesn't need to I still tell her she needs to go try anyways and then she can return back to whatever she was doing. You are doing amazing! This parent life isn't easy but we try our best, and that's all we can do. Just know you're not alone!

I’ve tried all this also but have had a very hard time keeping up on telling her to potty as well I work from home full time and watch her full time as well besides the 7 hours of classes she has throughout the week and I just don’t have the capacity it’s been getting me so much more lately I make her go to her room for a few mins so I can calm down myself but having to work while watching her is already overwhelming so her hiding her accidents is just adding fuel to an already overwhelming situation.

Buy some magnesium “oil”- it comes in a spray bottle. Put 2 tbs in a bath and do that once a week. Potty regressions *can* be caused by magnesium deficiency- especially if it started after an illness. Also- just have them go pantless at home. A 4 year old having accidents is not really an accident- it’s a not-going when they feel the urge because there too busy doing something else

My niece i have custody over started this too, and tbh with her it’s literally when she is too distracted like having so much fun she just doesn’t feel the need to stop what she’s doing and go to the bathroom, for example that damn iPad! So we took it because why am I checking 15 minutes into you playing and you peed, and literally will not say a thing. So idk if it’s distractions for your baby but I just had to vent cause girl I feel you!
