Potty Training: it's hard work!

So here we are. Just finished day 2 of our 3 day potty training program. Wow! I've been mentally preparing myself for about a week, but at the end of the day, my patience is pretty much shot!!

Day 1: no success. She never made it to the potty in time.

Day 2: today. She came into my room when she first woke up and told me she had to go potty. Yay!!!!! I took her and sure enough, she went! Hooray, she got a prize. After I talk about how excited I am and proud of her, she pees again but this time on the floor. Oops! We have another accident, but then she goes on the potty 3 more times! Yay! I feel like she's getting it. Then everything goes downhill. She has only accidents until I put her down for bed. Boo!

Day 3: tomorrow. Let's hope she gets it tomorrow!!

I've been wondering how it has been going!!! Good luck tomorrow. If she still doesn't get it I say take a break and try again in a month!

Oh goodness- that sure does sound like the pits!! I'm sorry. But she'll get it! Remember what Mom said, "You just do it." Ha ha. Next week she'll be a potty trained princess and you'll be diaper free! Keep pushing on!

I think potty training is one of the worst things about being a parent! It tests your patience more than anything else!

Oh, it's awful. We have tried many times and are still not there. I suppose someday my sweet little man will be emotionally ready...
