Consistency and patience are key! We created a ritual around it - every hour, my child and I would take a break and sit on the potty together. Having that routine really helped.

We also made it into a game and rewarded our little one with stickers each time they successfully went. That incentivized them to keep trying.

There were accidents, of course, but we never shamed or punished for those. Just lots of love and encouragement. It's such a big milestone, so celebrate every success, no matter how small!
