OT potty training

[Guest guest]

No that's not bad at all! Everything I " ve read about it says that if they show

the inititive you should run with it despite their age.

My Everett is 2 1/2 and has reached the INDEPENDENT phase so everything with him

now days is NO! But I bought the chair, to which he said NO. So I left it

laying about and he can do what he wants with it...he says it's the chair where

kids go pee and thinks it is a funny concept but I did catch him sneaking off

and attempting to pull down his pants to sit on it, so I ignored that lest he

get embarassed or yell NO at me again. Later he wanted his underwear on

(training pants) so I did that and he went to the potty and got mad his pee

didn't work. I casually told him it might work later. He spent the day

alternating between diapers and underpants, experimenting with it all on his own

and I just stayed out of his way. This is the kid who weaned himself from

breast feeding, weaned himself off the sippy cup, weaned himself off the

pacifier and a couple other things he just " did " like that, so I'm thinking when

he makes up his mind to potty, he will. It just isn't an issue you can force

but definately an issue you can encourage when they're ready and your kid sounds

very ready! trained real easy too.

good luck!

Re: Cleaning s ?

Thanks Kori, wasn't sure if I could get them wet. As far as potty training.

We will see.....he is still pretty young. He likes to go, thinks it is fun now.

the husband wont even let me buy underwear yet. I'm not working for awhile so

it will be a good time to try.

dish soap. rinses out well enough (better than laundry soap) and

seems to work. I don't think they really can be ruined by much

actually. Dry them over a heater vent. They're kind of stiff after

drying but soften up quickly once used. Pee isn't so bad... next

adventure for you is poop after he take his diaper off and mashes

around in it on the floor. then you need a toothbrush AND dish soap :~}

Good luck on the potty training! That's pretty good... twice in the

first day? He'll be diaper free in no time! (lol, more wishful

thinking... no... optimism!)
