Hi D.! I have a 3yr old. What i did is pretty much stay home,we didn't leave the house unless we absolutely needed to. I put him on the potty about every 30min.sometimes he went and sometimes he didn't. I always rewarded him for going or at least trying,w/stickers that he could put in a special book. For poopy time,when i could tell he had to go,i would put him on the potty chair and we would read books until he went, then i'd dump it into the big toilet and he'd flush it.he liked that. I had stopped using diapers and tried using pull-ups, he would still use it as a diaper. So i bought his favorite character underwear. I told him not to potty on them(ex.:"lightening mcqueen")he did pretty good. Sometimes he had accidents and still does at times. Just be patient and she'll get it soon enough. I tried at 18mo., it didn't work,so i waited 'til 2yrs.it seems like they'll never get it, but one day it'll just happen. I also bought rubber undies to put over his underwear,so if we were out,it wouldn't go through. Taking off the her diaper(i'm sure you know)means she's ready for the process. You'll do great and so will she! Good luck to you both....M.
