This is THE END of diapers for ALLY HARPER!!!
So, I decided that it was time for Ally Harper to be potty trained. We started this several months before Christopher arrived, but she didn't seem to be interested so, I decided to just wait until after he arrived. I had heard so many people talk about how children regress when a new baby arrives, so I didn't want to go through all the trouble, just to have to start over. But now I am dedicated to getting this done. So I did some research online and finally decided to purchase this eBook that guarantees you can have your child trained in 3 days or your money back. So what do I have to lose! So here goes.
Saturday, January 30th
Started 3 day potty training this morning
Put AH in panties and she through all the pull ups in the trash!
1st accident-- tee tee'd and poo'd in panties, sat on potty for a minutes, but nothing happened so we flush the poo and put on clean panties.
2nd accident-- tee tee'd while lying down on blanket watching Barney. Put blankets in the wash and AH in the tub.
Next up, lunch, then nap time!
Tee tee'd in potty 1st time before nap time, but then never went to sleep.
Checked on her several times, she was just lying in the bed. After a while, I checked her again, and she had tee tee'd in bed. Changed sheets and panties and now time for round 2. Will update later!
Gonna be a LONGGGG 3 days :)
3:15pm- got AH from her room, never took a nap, but did tee tee in potty when she got up!
4:15- Reminded AH to tell me if she needed to potty and she took off toward the bathroom, so I put her on the potty and she tee teed again. So we are sitting at 50% right now.
Note to self: BE PERSISTENT!!!! Currently it's 4:41pm
5:35pm: Reminded Ally Harper to tell mommy when she needed to potty, and she took off toward the bathroom, so I went with her and she tee tee'd!!! Yeah! So this makes us a little better than 50% now, but as I was posting this update, she walks up next to me and I hear tee tee hitting the floor, so I scoop her up and rush her to the potty but she left it all on the floor :( so we're back at 50%, but I'll take it. Because she is learning for sure! Fun times. (6:22)
Dinner time came and went, next up was bath time. Took her to the potty before bath time and she didn't hesitate. Next stop- bath.
After bath, we did the pj thing then had a little night time milky before brushing teeth and trying to potty one more time. She didn't want to potty this time, so we went back into the den and rocked a couple of minutes. Then I asked her if she wanted to go show brother how she pottys like a big girl and she took off. Used the potty without any hesitation and then climbed right into her bed! Perfect :) I consider today a success especially since we finished up better than 50%. We had 4 accidents and 5 successful runs, now if she can make it thru the night without wetting the bed. Keeping my fingers crossed. More to come tomorrow! Good night!
Sunday, January 31
2am-- I woke up because I heard Ally Harper say something in her bed, so I ran in there and scoop her up and she tee tee'd on the potty with no problem and then went straight back to bed. Perfect! Then she slept thru the night and I didn't hear her again until 7:50. When I went into her room this morning, she was STILL DRY!!!! YEAH ALLY HARPER. I took her straight to the potty but she was not able to do anything at the time. She had her morning cup of chac ka lot (chocolate milk) and then when I told her to let me know if she needed to potty, so took off to the bathroom. Christopher and I were right on her heals. She tried a couple of minutes, but]then wanted me to put the baby down. I left her on the potty for just a second while I put Christopher in his crib, but when I got back AH asked for tissue. She wiped then flushed and said bye bye to her tee tee. I'm really not sure if she did anything, but whatever. Still dry panties!
10:30am-- we ran to the bathroom and she pottied with not problem. Can you believe we are still wearing the SAME Minnie Mouse panties from last night at 8pm??
To be continued.......
12:00pm-- had 1st accident of the day! You would know it would happen while sitting on the couch too :{ Better luck next time.
Note to self: Patience is key!!!!!
Another accident, but at least she stands still and yells for you when it happens. I am able to get her straight to the potty, but again, she left it all on the floor.
2:00-- wants to go outside to play, but told her she must tee tee first, and she did :)
Daddy brought her in after a while, but didn't need to potty then, so back outside. Next time they came in I took her to potty and viola!!! Tee tee in the Potty!!!! Good girl, now back outside--3:05
4:30-- tried to take a nap, but had NO interest in that. She asked for a cup of milk and I told her she must tee tee first and she did! Laid her back down, but as of 5:15 still wide awake so she is now watching TV.
5:35pm-- Brooklyn came home and was congratulating AH on her success, so I said lets go show sister how you tee tee in the potty, and again she took off to the bathroom and tee tee'd without a problem.
Wasn't able to get AH to potty after dinner tonight; however, she did potty before bed time, so keep your fingers crossed that tonight goes as well as last night.
Day 3:
Monday, February 1
Well, all was good until 5 am when I heard AH calling for me. She had tee tee'd in the bed :( so we change clothes and sheets, but then she wasn't going back to bed. I turned on a video for her but that still wasn't good enough so Chris got up with her. She did potty for him once already this morning, so I guess were tied 1-1. More to come later. 7:00am
Day 3 update:
Ally Harper made it all day without an accident, except for the one she had at 5am. So proud of her. She even made #2 tonight in the potty! Here's to another good night (hopefully). 8:45pm
Tee tee'd before bed and then off a sleep.
Thursday, February 4th- 2 complete nights and days without an accident!!!! So proud of her.
Thanks for reading and riding the journey of potty train with us.
