I've got two girls, one 3 1/2 and one 21 months...the 3 1/2 y/o was introduced to the potty at 13 months because she decided to climb up on it an go...so we bought her a little one. I let her watch me and do her thing whenever I went potty (she hated clothes so we did the naked thing too), and lo and behold, by the time our second daughter was born, my first was 21 months and pretty consistant. Diapers still at night. Then, with the new baby we had a relapse and she had accidents on and off until about 2 1/2, then, no more accidents but still had a diaper at night until last week...since...nothing! My younger one is going a different route, she's in a toddler montessori program and part of the program is potty training. They start them at 15 months wearing underwear so they feel "wet" when they go in their pants. She's 21 months now and is going all day w/o a diaper...to school, during and home, all in underwear. It's been within the last few weeks that this has really come together, she started the program at 17 months, but it has been the best thing for her. It's been kindof a long process for both my kids, but very gentle, indroducing it when they showed intrest!
