( http://www.amazon.com/Gerber-Training-Pants-Girls-Pack/dp/B000ULRE9E/ref=pd_sbs_a_1 ) They won't hold an accident, but they are PERFECT for those times when they have that tiny dribble that they went a tiny bit but then stopped to make it to the potty. These things saved so many pairs of pants in the later stages of training as they will hold that little bit from getting to the pants right away. So when we decided potty training we quit diapers and let the accident happen and used the Gerbers and then when she got good then wore regular underwear. Hope that makes sense. ;) The Potty on the Go just rocks because you don't need to buy anything special to make it work. You just use the tiny trash can bags and they are good to go. They came with these "absorbent pads" to help soaking the pee up, but they are pretty pointless and they are just breast pads for when you're breastfeeding anyway. I think that was the selling feature of the potty. It's definitely been good to us. But it sounds like you're good to go and like you said consistency matters most!

So I'm not that early with this. Everyone has been saying to wait, Isabella doesn't tell me she has to go verbally but always heads toward the bathroom when she has to go. So, I thought it was time :) I'm hoping with consistency, I'll get her trained in a couple of weeks. Thank you so much for the advice! It's HUGE because not all kids are the same but usually have some sort of similarities. I bought a Potty on the go (the Kalencom 2-1 Potette, haven't used it yet and if I don't like it will def switch to yours), a regular potty training seat (baby bjorn) and one of those soft potty covers for when she's ready for the big potty. I hope I have all my bases covered. Did you have them wear regular underwear during the day? Thanks so much Kel! Ohhh awesome! So I’m not that early with this.

It's like I barely ever tried. She potty trained at 18 months and a few months after she was great regressed a bit and then had it completely. My son is 2 1/2 and has done it on his own a couple times, but totally isn't into being "trained" so we're taking it as it goes. I'm planning to really focus this spring/summer if he isn't there yet by then. It's warmer then to go around naked. ;) The biggest piece of advice I have isn't with the method. My advice is get a travel potty. We have (and LOVE) the Fisher Price Potty on the Go. It has saved us many many many times on those times they have to go NOW (which is most times when traveling with a training kiddo). The other is always be prepared with extra changes of clothing and not to get too discouraged when they take a few steps back. It happens and she'll get it. :) Good luck, Tara!!
