Okay so most of you have read my intro and questions. Here is what I have been doing. I take Emily at the top of every hour, if she fussy I don't even try I just let her go. I put her in training pants and stretch pants. We have only made it on the potty maybe about 2 times or so. But...I keep the potty in what ever room we are in and she even takes her little stuff animals to the "potty" she tells them "go pee pee" Too cute to watch. Any how if she has an accident grabs her self and either says "ah oh" or "i pee pee" So she is getting it. but what impressed me most is that last night (I am not even attempting night time training) she kept waking up 30 min. to an hour and crying. I couldn't figure out why. At 4:30 am I decided she might need changed well, I went to change her and to my surprise she was dry, so I put her on her potty and she went a ton! Then she happily went to bed. So I guess she decided she wanted to go in her potty and not her diaper! I am still in shock. What should I do, leave her in diapers (she sleeps in her own room) till we are sure she is ready or should I just go for it and get rid of all diapers? She only wears them at nap (which the last three days she is waking up dry from) night time and when we are out and about. What do I do! I am so excited that I want to get rid of them and go for it, but...am I jumping the gun here? Thanks for your help and suggestions you all are wonderful!

It's hard to say if you should keep using diapers or not. My lo has a tendency to pee in places I don't want her to on the bed if I leave the diaper off, but she'll hold it with the diaper on. We use training pants these days. I have her on a fleece blanket on top of the sheet, in case the pants leak. If she's nakey bum, she'll roll off that blanket and pee on the sheet. So you could experiment, and then go with whatever works best! I'd put her on something waterproof (if she's not already) when you're experimenting with diaper-free, though!
