Guess who
- yesterday and today -
took herself to the potty
and pooped!
but I have only one potty-training tip:
don't bother trying until the child is ready.
don't bother trying until the child is ready.
Really ready.
You'll save yourself
(and your poor baby)
so much frustration
(and laundry!)
If you do that
- wait on the child's readiness -
you won't have to potty train the child;
she will potty train herself.
Last weekend, Lexi wasn't quite ready.
Today, she's wearing panties.
I'm happy and sad at the same time...
hooray Lexi!!!
ReplyDeletebut what, would you say, are signs that the kid is ready?
... i sure hope Aiden decides he is ready soon, because these dipes make a momma gag...
desire to use the toilet & the knowledge, not that they have just gone potty - but that are just about to go potty.
ReplyDeleteRunning to a corner to poop is certainly an awareness, but not necessarily a readiness, imho
of course - you well know that lots of exposure to the idea and occasional testing out of the potty makes it not a fearsome thing.
(Lex' is by no means 'fully trained' yet, we're just off to a great start)
