Potty Training and Sick Toddler

AbMurph

My daughter is 29 months old and has shown that she is ready to potty train. We started 4 days ago. She would pee and poo in the potty with only a few accidents. It seemed "fun" to her. Yesterday, she refused to poop in the potty. She "leaked" a bit and then we finally put a diaper on her so that she could go. TMI: It was a bit runny. This am she wouldn't use the potty and also had a pee accident. Later on, in the am she started showing signs of a cold. Now, she's congested, sneezy and has a runny nose.

She's in good spirits otherwise. I'm not sure what to do now. Completely stop potty training until she isn't sick? Or continue to encourage her to use the potty? I don't want this to become traumatic and backfire. She was doing so well. Thoughts?
