Hello, I'm sort of new, joined up quite a while ago but just don't get as much time for the computer as I would like. I just read this though, and wanted to offer some empathy, I know EXACTLY how you feel. We were 25 days in, and in another hour it would have been bedtime and we would have closed out day 26 with no accidents, then last night my Snickers peed on the living room floor.
Totally our fault, we got distracted with kids, homework, etc, got lazy, and let her wait too long. I could smack myself for it, too.
But it showed me that we weren't as far along as I thought we were, because when she's confined to the kitchen Snickers will let us know, and loudly, when she needs to go out, and apparently she doesn't think the same rules apply to the living room. So she's back to kitchen lockdown or puppy chain gang (leash attached to my belt loop) for the time being.
She's almost 5 months old, and my goal/hope/wish is to have this whole potty thing down pat by the time the kids get out of school in June.
Well, a girl can dream...
