Potty Training ....or torture!

So we have started it the act of potty training Lanie!  Most parents when I have talked to them for advice, read blogs, or something in a book have two reactions. They go like this, 1) " Oh it was hard, but we stayed on top of it and they were trained in three days!" or 2) "It has been the worst part of parenting so far!"
In the Wade house we started last Saturday with Lanie in panties and the dedication to not leave the house the rest of the weekend we had tons and tons of accidents with zero success.  Then Sunday she still had accidents, but at least of couple of successful trips to the potty.  We set a time and every 30 min we march our bottoms to the potty and sit. Usually we have to entertain with the Ipad, book, singing a song, or anything to get her to set there for more than 3 seconds.  I have never spent so much time in my own bathroom, I have rearranged things, thought of new ways to decorate, and simply started at the wall.
We sent her to daycare on Monday in the panties with plenty of back up clothes.  We had talked with our daycare before and they were on board with it as long as we would stick with it at home to.  Monday she had zero pee accidents, but the first big poo accident.  Then we got home just bug and I until Daddy arrives and in the time span we had another poo accident and a pee accident. I was starting to loose my patience so thank goodness reinforcement arrived.  Tuesday, picked little miss up from daycare with zero accidents and three successful pottys!!!! I was on cloud nine, but I was quickly shot down when on the way home she declared I have to potty, well nothing we could do there she was in a car so accident number 1. Then about 30 min later she had another accident.  Luckily she did have two success as well that night so I was completely defeated.  Mark is way more calm and way more patient that I am at this and he just keeps say "she will get it" , but I pray everyday she will get it sooner rather than later.  This adventure of potty training is not fun ready for it to be over, what is that saying "this to shall pass" well lets just make sure all the 'passes' are in the potty :) I have always said if they want to punish prisoners they should put them in a car with a screaming child with no way of pulling over or helping them calm down. Now I think they should add potty training to that list!
