We had great success with training Bailey. I bought the book "house training for dummies" - it was GREAT!

Simply put - you must limit their area. If you're keeping your baby in a room while your'e gone - its too big. She needs an expen.

When you're home, you must gate off a room (and I layed down blankets too - so we could wash them when there was an accident) and watch, watch, watch her. Do not take your eyes off. If you can't watch her - even for a minute - then put your baby in the crate. The idea is to catch her in the act and correct it. Everytime you miss an opportunity to catch her - the potty training gets much more difficult.

My husband and I were faithful with this process and Bailey was 100% trained in 2 months. Yes, we've had a few accidents since then (less than 10) but accidents will happen - so, we invested in a spot-bot. Bailey is now 11 mos. old.

Good Luck - and it will get easier - just be consistent.
