What's the next step? (Potty training)

So Jordana will make peepee in the potty when I go, before her bath and when she wakes up. At school, whenever another girl in her class goes, Jordana goes too. However, she is not "holding it" for potty time.

She also never made #2 in a potty- or even let me know whe its coming.

So I am running out of diapers. I don't know if I should get pull ups, or more regular diapers- or both.

I also don't know what to do about getting her more consistent about the potty and how to make #2 on the potty. I have tried leaving her in underwear for ad ay at home, but she kept having accidents, so I thought maybe she wasn't ready.

Any advice would be appreciated.

When Alex was at the same point, I stopped using diapers entirely. We made a big production of going to the store and picking out some big girl panties, and had a little ceremony where Alex threw out her last few diapers. She had quite a few accidents that first week, but then that was it, she adapted.

As for #2, I had to use extra incentives to get her to poopy on the potty. TWO skittles for it, and I promised her a "Poopy present" for the first time she did it. Hence, her "pink poopy scooter" as she refers to it Chat Icon
