Rule # 1 don't use pull ups except if you have to be in public..its messy but they get it faster!
Your daughter is on the right track just keep encouraging her my children all started potty training the same way. I had to put them on the potty every hour or so for a long time but one day it just seems to click with them.
Good luck and remember its a big step if it dosen't happen overnight don't fret...every child learns at there own pace!

Just be patient. I have potty trained four children now. My last will be three this month. I have been potty training her for a long time now. It sounds to me like you are doing right. All you can do is be consistent, and when she is ready, she will start doing it on her own. It helped when I took my daughter to the store and let her pick out new underwear. I got her excited about using the potty so she could wear the big girl panties, like her big sisters and Mommy, and the cute designs that she loves on the underwear helped too. Find what gets her excited about going to the potty and dont be afraid to use it. LOL. Good luck.

My daughter wasn't ready until she was 2 1/2 but once we started, I used the timer on the microwave as a signal for her to go. First I set it every 10 minutes until she would go and then with 30 minute intervals. We did this during an entire weekend. It worked out really well but whenever she would hear the microwave afterwards, she would ask if she had to go potty !

i am potty training my niece, and i keep her in pull ups all day and take her to the bathroom every hour and leave her on there until she goes.she tells me sometimes when she has to go, but otherwise i just take her. good luck hope this helps alittle.

i say just keep doing what you are doing because she'll eventually realize what it "feels" like to have to go pee and she'll put all the peices together and eventually she'll be telling you when she has to go!!
good luck!
