Hi, does anyone have any advice on training a 4 year old to control wee?
My daughter is 4.5years old and we have been persevering with potty training for over 2 years. She is fine with poohs but has wee accidents on a daily basis, generally when distracted but the accidents are really frequent and she now just says “mammy I am to busy to go”. We have tried sticker charts, rewards, positive talking etc.
She has had kidney scans etc but they are all clear so we are really struggling as to what to do next, any advice from people who have been in a similar situation would be appreciated.

Much same here with my boy who is turning 4. Had same issue with his sister, it only really happened at home and when she started primary school it stopped and she’s fine now. Hoping same applies to my boy as it gets me down at times. HV said on the positive side he is so relaxed at home and busy playing he lets go, guess that’s one way of looking at it
Have you tried a potty watch to remind her? My daughter was a bit the same, I put it down to constipation. Finally when she got to school she worked it out and is dry. Just doesn’t like using the toilet to poo, but that’s a whole other issue!!
