3yo having accidents

My 3yo DD has been potty trained for around 8 months. She's 3.6. These past two days she's peed herself twice and it seems she's just left it too late and not made it to the toilet in time. It's odd as she was fully potty trained in a week and has only had 3 accidents since, once when she was ill and these past two days.

Will it pass? I've thought of a UTI but she says it doesn't hurt to go. Any ideas?

The only thing I can suggest is, if you see her really getting into something ask her if she needs the toilet... I don't know if it will help or not but it worked with my DD!

The other thing to ask is if she has had any trauma recently, maybe a change in nursery to school nursery or anything like that? That can sometimes contribute but if this isn't the case I wouldn't worry!

Don't worry about it. If it's still happening in a week/two weeks time then think again! Maybe she just got too busy- or could be a sign of stress reflecting something else? Eg DD doesn't have accidents either but when she went back to nursery after christmas break had 2, just a bit stressful going back to nursery. No more after 2 though.
