Naked first or straight to undies?

DD is 22 mos and has been regularly using the potty since 14 mos, but it is not 100%. She goes one the potty all of the expected times (after nap, after meals, etc), but it's the in between times we still have left to conquer....

I was thinking of doing the 3 day method now that she is the "reccomended" age to get her the last little bit trained. I can't decided if we should start with naked or straight to undies. She wears pull ups now, and diapers for sleep. I know the method says naked bc they love to be naked, but she isn't really a "naked" kid so I can't decide...

Thoughts? suggestions? ideas?

    We had the same problem with DD - well, she would go when we put her on, but wouldn't consistently tell us when she needed to go.  We did the 3 day method and now she's 100% in undies and is doing great!  

    The 3 day method I read said that undies are better than naked because you want to catch the accidents and to be able to tell them that big kids wear undies.  It worked for us.

    Thanks! This is great feedback. We decided we are going to do it this coming weekend. We have cleared our schedule, and have been talking about it a lot with her, fingers crossed!

     How long did it really take you? How old was your DD at the time?

    If you have a link or the info you read, I'd love to read it. Thanks again!

    We are on day 3 of potty training. We did undies the first day of potty training and after a bunch of accidents we went to naked. The biggest benefit was being able to see her go the second she started to leak. I was able to get her right the potty, and I didn't have to fuss with pulling anything down.
