I hear your woes, ladies. DD is almost 3.5yrs now. She has been in undies for a YEAR now. First she potty trained completely in 3 days. This lasted 3 weeks before we started backsliding. She had two more stretches of being...

Thanks for that website, Tylertyler. I had been trying to figure out waiver information for my state. That site has lots of great information!
