I suppose a kind of regression issue here - am determined to carry on!
dd 26mths and has done really well, has whole dry days 60% of the time. Some bad days too tho like today....she knows what to do and can go on the potty/loo etc. we rarely have an accident out its just at home she has worked out its a good way to get attention by just standing looking at me then peeing on the floor! Is the idea to just ignore it and carry on with 'wees go in the potty' chat? Serious bribing? any ideas...

Definitly attention getting. Get her to help you clean up each time without getting cross, and casually remark "wees go in the potty". The novelty will wear off eventually, especially if she gets more attention for doing wees in the right place than on the floor. And gets bored with mopping up!

Do you do a star chart? DS loves the fact that he gets stars. He actually calls it "going for a star" when he goes on the potty now and we count all his stars up each time. He is very pleased with himself. He also got a treat for doing it so well. Will your DD respond to "if you get xx many stars, we can go and get a treat from the toyshop?"
