End of week one of potty training!!
in General chat
Hi guys,
Well, today was the end of the first week of potty training Niamh, and Im soooooooooooooo proud of her. She has done much better than I expected. We went away over the weekend and had NO accidents at all. Today we had one, but it was my fault as I was washing up, and couldnt dry my hands quick enough. It was a poo!! Thats only the second poo accident. Dont think thats too bad. Shes also now cracked the asking and going on the potty whilst wearing pants and trousers/skirt. Last week, she was doing really well, but only when she was left without anything on bottom half.
Sorry bout the essay, just wanted to say how well its going.
I hope you are all well.

Will she get a reward for cracking it so quickly?
You will have to give me some tips when Katelins time comes.
nicolette, yes, I do go out a lot with her, and we went to stay with friend at the weekend. We generaly take her potty, but she went on the toilet a couple of times at my friends house, and this morn when we went shopping we forgot her spare clothes and potty, but she was fine. She asked for a wee. and I just took her to the ladies, she was fine there too.
Lucyanne, I took her swimming Friday (I take her every Friday) but said that this weeks trip was a treat for doing so well. Oh, and Ant and I gave her "pennies" (a £ each) and she was told she could buy what she wanted./ She chose a princess tiara from Asda.
she'll get one this week too for actually cracking it with pants and trousers on, and telling me when she needs to go. Not sure what the treat will be, but I'll think of something. Maybe a new book.
I think the best tip is to wait until they are ready. my mil kept encouraging me to do it. Itried a couple of times, but it didnt work. I knew this time though!!
Thanks again!!
Aaron was really late coming out of nappies, he was 3 1/2.
But I knew he was'nt ready till then. He cracked it really quickly too. He was able to be dry at night at the same time. I thinks it was because I did'nt push it. Even though I felt pressured to, from other people.
She's done brilliantly though. long may it continue.
Is she prefering to use the toilet to the potty?
That is really good and it hasn't taken long either, lets hope this week is just as good. xx
And well done Kas for cracking it so quickly wish Ethan was doing as well!!!!
Thats great x
Hi tasha,ethan will crack it,riley took a while and is almost 3 now and doing well during the day.we only have the odd one or two accidents still but his better than i expected.His not dry at night just yet coz ive got to get him out of drinking 2/3 lots of milk.
I did a sticker chart and used characters he liked and let him choose and stick it on,that helped us.
Good luck tho
