Toddler potty trained
My daughter has been potty trained for three months with no accidents. Now she has had three accidents in a week she’ll just stand there and pee her pants! What is going on?☹️

@Jenny She was watching tv and I was on the phone and she just stood there peeing herself. 😞
So it sounds like she may have been distracted by the TV. Again, it happens. She's only been potty trained a few months.
Thank you for the reassurance!🙏🏼😊
Is she in regular undies or padded training? It can happen with a child who is used to having tiny pee accidents but still makes it to the potty. But can also be from just not wanting to stop to go potty. Accidents are normal up until 5/6 years old. Overnight a child can need a pullup until 6 as well

It happens, and it's hard to guess what's going on without knowing the child. It could be that she's nervous about something or something about the potty is scaring her, she's caught up in something and forgets, she could be testing boundaries, she could have a UTI, or she could just be having an off week. Just remind her to listen to her body next time and offer more frequent reminders to use the potty for the time being.
