My 2.5 year old DD was doing very well with her potty learning to the point where she was having about an accident (occassionally two) a week. However she has started overnight visits with her father and despite his saying she is handling then well her behaviour afterwards indicates otherwise. When DD returns she shuns me but clings to her grandmother for an hour or two. It hurts but I am gratefully she is able to seek her grandmother for comfort.
Also after each overnight there has been a potty regression where DD has more accidents then is normal for her. After the first overnight she had a couple more accidents that day and then returned to her normal. After the second she had two or three days of increased (nearly constant) accidents before she returned to her norm. Since the third she has been having more accidents then success and both she and I are getting frustrated. It has been nearly two weeks and the next overnight is days away. Ex is not approchable on this (or anyother issue) regarding DD. I supect that DD is in diapers througout her visits with him.
What can I do to better help my DD deal with the stress of overnights and help her with her potty learning regressions following the visits.
