This seemed to work for me...Only underwear, never pull ups...Day 1 I put my LO on the potty every 15 minutes, if she had to go or not....day 2 every 15 min. in the morning then every 1/2 hour in the afternoon, and day 3 I let her tell me when she had to go. I never put a diaper or pull up on so that she would know what it felt like to be wet if she did have an accident. Good luck! I also bought from Onestepahead.com a mattress protector that goes over the mattress so that if an accident happened at night I didn't have to change the whole bed, but just pull that protector off, and replace with a towel.

How old was your DD when you did this?

Re: Does anyone have 3 day potty training methods they could send me?
I potty trained both my kids using my version of the 3 day method. The catch is you need 3 FULL days of doing NOTHING except watching your kid. Someone else cooks & does everything else. No visits from or to anyone.
Both were potty trained "early": DD was 22 months, DS was 26 months. DS showed no signs, DD was interested in the potty and referred to it as "pee pee:".
We wrapped up all rugs, covered all cloth furniture.
Day 1: No underwear, no pants. Kids pee on floor. Notice that they pee, connect urge with pee and pushing. Potty in middle of room. Pull them to potty as they start to pee. Encourage "pee pee in potty". I gave juice day 1 to encourage peeing & sat kids down on potty multiple times. when pee happened in potty, I acted as if I saw the most amazing thing in the world.
Day 2: Continue day 1 method. No more juice. You can start underwear in middle of day. Kid will pee in underwear, so buy lots of them. Potty still in middle of room. Ask every hour or so if kid has to go.
Day 3: Underwear & pants (dress is easier with girls). No more asking (unless a very long time has passed). I'm all up for independence. You can move potty out of room.
No pull ups (the kid has to pee & wet themselves). No diapers at all (except at night, DS is 3.5 and is nowhere near dry at night ever).
Poop is tougher: DS took an extra 3 months of pooping in his underwear before he would use the potty. DD (at 22 months) got the hang of it & asks to poop from day 1.
Don't be discouraged! I had a LOT of people tell me that I couldn't do it: my MIL, SIL (a preschool teacher), babysitter (mother of 3). My kids never regressed & rarely if ever have accidents (esp the girl).

Re: Does anyone have 3 day potty training methods they could send me?
Thank you! My DD is 2.5 and I'm not sure she's "ready" as she will only tell me she has gone after the fact. She also seems afraid of the "potty" without pants/diaper on. She says she wants to pee on the potty but if you undress her to go, she cries.
She also does not keep a dry diaper overnight. So we would definitely need to use pull ups.

DD is 28 months and I'm on day 2 of potty training. She started showing interest before she was 2, she would sit on the potty and pee. I never really forced it, but if we were home I would encourage her to use it and go without diapers. I decided this weekend that it was time to go for it so she has been in underwear for 2 days. She had a bunch of accidents yesterday, a few accidents today but much less. She even went to the potty on her own a few times without us asking. I put her down for naps in underwear (with the detachable crib sheet) and she wet both days, but I'm keeping her in diapers at night. DS still wets occasionally at 5yo so I'm not going to stress about that yet (and she is still in the crib). We give her 1 M&M for pee, 2 for poop plus she gets stickers. I don't get upset if she has an accident, just remind her that she needs to go on the potty next time. I'm expecting it to take a full week, but hoepfully she will surprise us and "get it" sooner!!

We reinforced "pee pee in potty". Then we would put kid on potty and do a whole "hooray!" clapping & so on. I did have to force DD to sit on it once or twice. With forcing & positive reinforcement, she was happy to sit.

Oh it was the most grueling 3 days ever but it definitely worked for the most part. It took a full 7 days for DS to learn to poop in the potty but he has pee down after the 3.
