Potty Time


Our daughter turned two in July of this year, and we’ve been told by several people we need to get her potty trained. That’s easy for them to say, they aren’t the ones doing it. We have a 2 month old baby as well which can make everything more difficult.
We have the potty chair, the pull ups, and the big girl panties. We’ve actually had all those for a while just haven’t had the drive ( and neither had our daughter) to really push it. Well we decided it was time.
We’ve been hardcore potty training for about three days now. She has done really well. Gone all day with a dry pull up, wakes up with a dry one in the morning and after naps. She’s had very few accidents. Then today we get up and she has tummy troubles and isn’t making it to the toilet in time. So much for progress. We’ll just slack off for today and pick it back up tomorrow if she’s feeling better.
I’ve been told to get the cloth training pants and the plastic cover to go over them to help her feel like she’s not still wearing a diaper. Sometimes the pull ups can be confusing. So now we are on the hunt for some training pants. I will also be decorating her very own wipe container forger bathroom and get her some cute kids soap and towels for hand washing after potty time.
She seems to really have the desire to do it tho. Even started refusing her potty chair and started climbing up on the big toilet to go. She’s excited every time she goes, and upset if she has an accident. This is promising since she wants to learn and do it.
We will continue on in our potty training journey and hopefully it won’t take too long to have her completely trained. Pray for us.
