How can I get my 3 year old off the bottle?
My daughter is 3 years old and I cn’t get her off the bottle or the diapers. What can I do? She gets off for about a day or two bbuts starts throwing a ft until she gets it.
You have to be persistent.
Perhaps you can set aside a certain time each day where she’s allowed to have her bottle (maybe before bed)…that way she’s not being completely cut off from her source of comfort.
You’re not trying to wean her AND potty train her at the same time are you? That’s a little too much all at once…deal with one thing at a time or she’ll be too overwhelmed.
I used to watch a lil girl who was 5 and when I first started watching her she wasnt on dipers but she pooped and peed all over hersellf all the time I realized after watching her for a while that she loveesss jollyrancher. I bought a big bag of jolly ranchers and told her she could have one for every time she whent to the potty like a big girl and soon she was using the restroom all by herself so you could try to keep your childs favorite candy or fruit around and reward her when she goes to the bathroom when you give her the candy she will know she did something good/right,,,
Hello,there. I have personally gone through this 7 times. I have 6girls and 1boy. I would do the bottle FIRST, because if you potty train her first she might go back to wetting her pants while she is having her fits. I started out by giving them a “sippy” cup throughout the day, one with a soft mouthpeice, then a BOTTLE at bedtime. . ONLY. She is three years old so you should be able to put her on a reward system of somekind. Take her to the store with you, let HER pick out the sippy cup. Then sit her down with the bottle and the sippy cup next to each other and tell her in words that you know she will understand that the sippy cup is during the day and the bottle is before bed and/or at naptime. do this until she is comfortable with the sippy cup. then replace the bottle with the sippy cup once she is comfortable drinking from it. Don’t forget to REWARD for being such a “BIG GIRL”.
As for the potty training I would wait til you have her completly off the bottle to start that. Its the same thing, let her pick out the potty chair and pull-ups. Start timing how long after she drinks something does she go in her pull up or diaper, what time does she go #2. Or you can start taking her or putting her on the potty evry half hour or so until she goes. ( Remember NEVER punish, yell discipline if she makes a mistake, I KNOW it is really frustrating but it will set you back months).
If she has NO interest in it at ALL, I would put the potty training on hold for a month or two, then try again. Throughout that time when you are at the store take her over to the little girl undies and point at them and ask her if she “likes them”, do you want some of your own?. . . etc. Just get her interested. And take her to the bathroom WITH you whenever you go. ( I know its your only time to yourself. . lol, it sucks but it HAS to be done).
Anywho, hope this helps you, and GOOD LUCK!!!
With the bottle, if she is three and getting all her nutrition from food and can drink from a sippy cup you can just take it away from her, talk with her, tell her that it is going bye bye and maybe even have her throw it away. as far a s the diapers, my daughter was 3 and a half before she was potty trained, rewards is the key, we made a sticker chart,every time she went she got a new sticker. she also had a pascifier until then and one day I threw it out the window and said uh oh now we dont have it any more. I would suggest cold turkey for the bottle throw them all away, cause if she sees one she will want it. I think by now it is to late to givve her it at night in order fo are her to get rid of it. I hope I helped. :)
my daughter is 2yr 7months old and im working on potty training. So I went to the store bought some stickers ( any kind they really dont pay attention what kind they are, they just like getting rewarded) and so everytime she uses the potty me and her daddy celebrated with her and give her a sticker. She wanted more but she knew she had to use the potty to get one and now for most of the day she off the diaper. she only uses it when she takes her nap go out or at night time. About the bottle , she is still on it but I only morning and night is when she drinks from it. I dont offer it if she doesnt ask for it and well if you really want to take her off the bottle try rubbing some chilly on it so she wont want it or something really sour, she will ask you to clean it but just pretend you do , and well hopefully it helps
