I think we finally had a potty-training break-through!!!!It's been a week of straight toilet use for this kid! I can't tell you how excited I am. I honestly thought this kid would be baptized in a swim diaper! But something finally clicked and we are having great success! In fact, just the other morning even Kinlee peed on the potty. I figured while I was still in the potty-training mode I might as well go with it!
I think there were two things that really helped, the e-book, 3 Day Potty Training, it seriously helped me more than anything. It really emphasizes using positive reinforcement and it's something that I really needed to change in my everyday parenting too.
The second thing that helped was prizes. Tray had a sticker chart and if he peed 10 times he got a toy and if he pooped once he got a toy. I just went to the dollar store and got a bunch of little toys that he liked and I kept them where he could see them.
I am so proud of him and what a big boy he is now!!!!
