DD is 2.7 and is doing reasonably well with potty training. We have pretty much cracked nbr2's!! Not quiet as good with the nbr1's thou!!!

I expect an accident every now and then but dd has taken to having a tinkle in the car. This is becoming a daily occurance and is obviously causing a few problems when we are on our way out somewhere, she especially does it to and from nursery.

We have taken some steps to try and help her with this ie potty near the door on the way out and making sure she is really warm ( at one point i thought it was the cold but its its happening now even on normal days). She can have a good wee before we head out of the door and 2 minuites later shes peeing again!! Anyone any ideas on how to handle this as its proving to be a trick - and smelly problem to solve. Thank you!!

Don't know how to stop it but would suggest one of those little plastic backed seat mats if don't already have one. Mine was from JoJomammanbebe but do them in mothercare.

piddle pads to save the car seat - no other bright ideas I'm afraid other than good old bribery

could it be something to do with the vibrations of the car? maybe try starting off with very very short trips, with lots of praise and build up? good luck
