Anyone else had a terrible first day then had success?

i would hold off and wait until she tells you she is doing a wee.. that is the best sign they recognise it! and you dont need to have a blaring thing every 30 minutes to remind you or her(the point of it is she knows and doesnt rely on being told) that she needs to go..

i have one child who i did the timed tting and one who i let decide when she was ready and i can tell you which one has very few accidents and didnt actually take any training (well except to teach her how to get on the toilet) 2 yrs on eldest still has accidents and doesnt listen to his body...

DS was at that stage late last year, he wanted to wear undies, but then would just pee in them, come and ask for a new pair

He toilet trained himself basically about a month ago. He has had about 5 accidents all up. Mostly poos.. LOL.. but is now pooing in the potty as well.

I realised that he just wasn't quite ready, and I wasn't willing to push him in any way. Plus I hate cleaning up wee and poo.. LOL

I would say wait a few months.
