I have a baby of 3 months that is struggling in the potty training department. I'm consistant with her, but like everyone else has said, it just takes time. I am training my Maya to use a potty bell. She has independantly rung it only one time, but that means that she'll eventually get it! Pepe Mint is actually the YTer that mentioned that I might like to try it. She has great tips (as do all experienced YTers!) and told me to buy the bells that people put on their fishing line (2 packs) and some decorative ribbon. This has worked well, but I bet the ones Judy suggested are much prettier! I make Maya ring the bell with her paw or her nose EVERY SINGLE TIME she goes outside. Even if she doesn't want to, I help her do it so she understands that the bell means outside. Now when i take her to the door and say "Let's go outside Maya" she'll reach up and ring the bell.

Do what works for you! I love this option because you can hear it!
