Potty Chronicles Day 4

It's Day 4 and we're still doing pretty good.  At least in the area of no accidents.  The knowledge of having to go is still wonky.  I at least trust Little Miss enough to know when she has to go (even if they're false alarms) that I haven't bothered covering the couch in towels and let her run around in her tutu skirts :)

Potty Adventures Day 3....

Technically today is day 3 in potty training, but yesterday doesn't really count as Little Miss was only in her undies for 2 hours and the rest of the day was spent in diapers.

I see progress today and that makes me happy!  No actual peeing in the potty, but she's at least made it into the bathroom.  The first time I asked DH to bring her in the bathroom since it had been an hour since snack time and I figured she'd probably be prime for going.  And she was.  Too bad DH was distracted by football to get her on the potty so she figured the floor was just as good.  At least it was on the bathroom floor!  The second time I was in the bathroom and I see Little Miss rounding the corner and as she gets in front of the door I see her squeeze her legs together and I'm frantically finishing what I'm doing and she comes in and just explodes pee everywhere.  She manages to sit down on her potty chair but by then it's too late.  The worst part?  Pee puddles look amazing like water puddles and so she commenced splashing in them.  This means someone got an early bath today!

So while she hasn't actually peed in her potty, I'm just happy she's starting to get that she needs to get to the bathroom and by clenching her legs that means she knew she had to pee!  So woohoo!

Potty Training

It's at times like these that I wish Little Miss had been another boy :D  Because then at least I'd know what to do as far as potty training...and that it'd be at least another year before I attempted :D  But as it is Little Miss has been showing that she's at least curious about the process.  Yesterday I went ahead and bought her some big girl undies and this morning I thought we'd test the waters.

She usually follows everybody into the bathroom so she knows what happens.  Today I've been telling her after going potty that that's what she'll hear when she goes so she knows.  So far we've visited the potty 3-4 times and peed on the floor.  :)  I knew it was coming soon and it happened just a few minutes after our last visit to the bathroom.  Oh well.  :D  I wasn't exactly expecting it to go smoothly the first day!  More to come!
