I haven't read all of these pages but I will put in my 2 cents worth. When my daughter was born I had a GF that had a child several years older. She had pushed this child so hard to train within the first year (I felt it was so she could brag her child was trained by X months) that the child rebelled and peed the bed until she was almost 11. I decided really quickly that I would not do that to my child. I showed her the potty and made sure she knew what it was for. We had potty books and songs and dolls that used the potty. I let her decide when it was the right time. She was three and came to me and said "Diapers are yucky!" one day and we put her into big girl pants. She may have had three accidents from that day forward and no problems. If your baby is ready that early then bravo for all of you, but please don't push or reprimand if she reverts. That kind of pressure will backfire every time.
