[quote=Anonymous]Is she in in-person school or daycare? Does she have the accidents there? And has this been consistent since you potty trained or is it more recent?

I ask because many kids, mine included, have experienced some regression in different things, including potty training, due to the disruption of not being in school or due to a change in their schedules thanks to daycare closures or changed hours.

Mine never has accidents when we are out of the house, and never at daycare. But yes, accidents several times a week at home, almost always urine. We've talked to our pediatrician who is pretty convinced it's a reaction to all the upheaval. If she's holding it and using the potty for many hours on a near daily basis when outside or in another setting, it's not a physical question, it's a behavioral one. We are working with a behavioral therapist on it, though haven't seen an improvement yet.

If it happens no matter where she is, then I agree with PPs it might be constipation or another physical question.[/quote]
