You can't say we didn't try. We did. Very hard for four days. Only one of us was trained. It was so frustrating. She didn't care if she was wet or dry. She'd wet herself and still tell me she was dry. She got to where she would "hold it" for up to 6 hours. The only "successes" we had were when I knew she had to go and could wrestle her to sit still. If she didn't need to go, she would sit there for hours. And, the only times she went during the entire four days was when she was in the bathroom by herself, with no books, no movies, nothing. We tried M & M's, prizes, lots of liquids, dances, parties...anything to celebrate but she wasn't impressed. Needless to say, we are back in diapers and I'm okay with that.
P.S. One week later, she is now telling us when she pees and poops in her diaper. She doesn't like it and wants to be changed. So, I guess we made some progress.

Save these for Jenae's "senior" scrapbook. This should be great leverage when she is a teen.
