I think those small little accidents are still very normal for a kiddo her age. Even Buba has them every now and then. A few months ago, we went through a really bad patch of having multiple accidents each day. I put him in undies in the morning and told him that if he had an accident, he'd have to wear training pants the rest of the day instead of getting a new pair of big boy undies. It was only a few days of this and then the accidents stopped happening so frequently. He's gotten much better at "listening to his body" lately. Which is very, very nice for me (and our washing machine!).<br /><br />You're probably right not to push B to sit on the potty. While she seems very aware about who's wearing panties and who's not, it sounds like she's just not ready to buy into the whole potty process. Of course, she'll get there. And when she does, you'll know.Renaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08318311170413043717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596567296179908968.post-57128044922058734452011-07-15T21:45:50.255-05:002011-07-15T21:45:50.255-05:00Adam still wants NOTHING to do with the potty!

However, I did tell her at age 3 years & 4 months, that she was a big girl now and big girls don't wear diapers during the day. We switched to underwear then and she had accidents for about a week. When she got sick of the accidents, she used the potty. :)Holly Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13616777037036202935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596567296179908968.post-82054463397643790992011-07-14T12:13:54.309-05:002011-07-14T12:13:54.309-05:00I think you are taking an awesome approach and B w...I think you are taking an awesome approach and B will be ready when she is ready!!

I know they're not two yet, but they get excited about the potty so I was hopefully. We're still excited to just sit on it, and my plans of everyone seeing mommy pee is just turning into some freak show every time I go to the bathroom! <br /><br />I love that B can differentiate brands, that is too funny! Maybe if you start buying her some off brand diapers she'll want the panties!Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13336283103973967252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596567296179908968.post-86065714596205863352011-07-14T10:20:06.321-05:002011-07-14T10:20:06.321-05:00Glad it's still going so well with A!
I am ...Glad it's still going so well with A! <br /><br />I am whole-heartedly following the "they'll go when they're ready" method with my girls. They have NO interest in going on the potty right now, even though M has been dry every single morning for the past couple of months (and A most mornings). But we take them to the potty and they still won't go until they get a diaper on.<br /><br />I'm thinking it's going to have to be a boot-camp-style of training at our house...eventually, we will just take the diapers and spend a weekend at home learning to use the potty!Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11371310465607810535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596567296179908968.post-78564403817751337512011-07-14T10:10:38.622-05:002011-07-14T10:10:38.622-05:00One at a time...never thought of doing that...hmmm...One at a time...never thought of doing that...hmmmm.<br /><br />At what age did you start?
