potty gripes.

ok, i'm throwing in the towel, diapers...and all things potty. i am truly at the end of my rope with the potty training. Noah is pee trained and poop trained (sort of). Reese started herself and went three days with no accidents. HURRAY! oh wow, this is going to be so much easier than I thought. errr, nope. then comes day four. and reese decides that this potty thing is for the birds. she wanted nothing to do with panties. she wanted nothing to do with the potty. no amount of candy or gifts or bribes could get this girl to change her mind. fast forward nearly three weeks and at last i get her to put on the sleeping beauty panties. made a HUGE deal about it. so the new thing is, she holds it. for hours. i put panties on her in the morning and as of 1pm still nothing. we sit and sit and nothing. when I put her pull up on her for nap, niagra falls spills over. and then she holds it all day again until the pull-up is back at night. so we went from success, to nothing to a near bladder infection every day. what's worse? school starts in a few weeks and although it's not a requirement, it was a goal. She is almost three years old and can do it. Any chance a potty fairy could drop out of the sky and give me a hand?

I have thrown my hands in the air.

words of wisdom??
