Thanks, Amy. I will take any advice anyone wants to offer. I'm ready to go back to buying diapers for 1. Hoping to hear some things I might not have thought of. Good Luck with night traing

Hey Lori

Kadi is daytime potty trained but not night time. . . still working on that one.

I'm not sure how much I can help though. Kadi pretty much did it all by herself. Told us potty, we bought her a potty and she did the rest. LOL She wears panties when we are just running to the store, park or somewhere where we won't be gone too long. But if we are running out for a long period of time we put her in a Pull Up. If Nat doesn't like the potty chair you might try putting her on the big potty. Kadi only potttied in the chair a couple times. She likes the big potty and with the help of a step stool can get on it all by herself.

As far as how long it took us I can't remember. I know she started at about 14 months and got consistant with no accidents by about 18 months. . . BUT like I said she still isn't night trained. So not sure what time frame you are looking for. LOL

Oh and while potty training in the beginning we wore panties all the time while at home. I hated the occasional accident but she KNEW when she was in panties it was time to get down to business.

When we have playmates over I usually have to bribe her to go potty just to be sure we won't have accidents due to having too much fun. LOL Her rewards are stickers and M&Ms. . . 1 for trying 2 for pottying.

Hope some of this helps.

I'am trying for the second time to potty train Natulie. The first time i was pregnant and just did not do it very cosistently. So it didi not happen.

How many of you already have your LO's trained? Are they wearing underwear or pullups? How long did it take you? Anything special you used or did? How did you handle it whille you were out and about?

I did potty train my older 2 but it took forever and that was 7 years ago.

Thanks for any help,
Lori

Any advice on what worked/is working for you would be much appeciated.
