Potty Training regression. Any suggestions

[gardeningangel]

DD1 is 2.4yr DD2 is 4 months. About a month after DD2 was born and I was capable of giving DD1 loads of attention, we started potty training DD1 was 2yrs. I had tried this in the past but went back to nappies as I didn't want to push her too hard. So we tried again and just as I was about to give up, DD1 started going to the potty, then on the toilet to the point where she was completely dry through the day and wore nappies on a night. But even then, sometimes I would find her nappy dry and she would ask to go to the toilet in the morning. She was even getting on the toilet and doing everything herself. Then almost as quick as it started, she started to wee herself. Not everything but enough to wet her pants and then she would ask to go to the toilet. This started happening more and more, so I went all the way back to the start. Loads of praise, attention, brought the potty downstairs, but have got to the point where by mid afternoon I would have no clean pants for her to wear so put her back into her pull up. I think I know part of the reason....obviously baby coming along and not getting as much praise for going to the loo. I have tried to talk to her, she smiles, I tell her the other boys and girls don't wet there pants, which she is happy to tell me herself. I have tried telling her its naughty and getting angry with her - doesn't work. I have even left her in her wet pants - she doesn't seem to care. I have now had to put her back into normal pants as the pull ups have given her a rash between her legs with it being so hot. If she tells me she needs the toilet I start saying "Hold it" which sometimes we get their dry other times we don't.
Any suggestions how I can stop her/make her realise that dribbling in your pants is wrong or do I just keep going until the penny drops...again. She is a very quick little girl and I do think that it is partly attention seeking but how can I snap her out of that one?

I feel your pain gardeningangel!!
I've just written a post myself about my little boy... and like you I'm sure he knows what he is doing and is wetting on purpose for attention/to be naughty!
I'm at my wits end!! Ready to give up!
But I'm going to give it one last shot and hope it changes soon!
If I find anything that works I'll be sure to share with you!

Good luck :)
