I lied. De-link me if you feel you must.
She neglected to tell me that she pooped, and once I started changing her, it became obvious that she had peed beforehand.
Well, I'd been told that potty training for bowel movements is more difficult than urination, and one thing at a time, so I didn't let it bother me, and since she had done so well with peeing throughout the day, I didn't spank her.
In fact, unless she starts showing egregious lack of concern over peeing in her training pants, I don't think I'm going to use the negative again; that was just to get her attention and let her know there can be more serious consequences other than just "not getting a candy", and it seemed to work. She went again right before bed, so I'm hoping she'll wake up dry.
When she wakes up, she's too groggy and grumpy and unhappy to want to sit on her potty chair, although I try each day. So there are some times she has asylum. I'm working on expanding the range of success at this point.
Okay, this should do it for a few days. Hopefully, I'll have nothing to add until I can announce that she's fully off daipers. She has about 20 left, and I'm hoping I won't ever have to buy daipers ever again!
I had challenges when i first started training my daughter, espcially being a single parent made it more difficult but i bought a book that was really good and i was able to train my daughter in a weekend. the book can be found at

It's a difficult time, but it doesn't last forever.
