My son is 2. I had tried to potty train him in the summer after his 2nd birthday, but had no success at it. He loved wearing underwear, but he kept having accidents. I felt like I was just following him around with a bottle of carpet cleaner. LOL. I decided I needed to learn more because I obviously wasn't doing it right. |
|
I decided to tackle the potty training issue again over my Thanksgiving holiday as I would be home with him 5 days. I downloaded your book a few weeks before and read it all in one sitting! It was wonderful. Not only did it pinpoint what I did wrong the first time, but it helped me develop a plan for this time. And it was a breeze! |

By the end of the 5 days, he no longer needed diapers for naps and by the end of November he no longer needed diapers at night. He now wakes up on his own (when he needs to) at about 2:00 am and has me take him to the bathroom. I still make sure I go with him during the night, as one night last week he tried to go on his own and forgot to pull down his underwear. But I still think that was a success. Clean, dry sheets. |
|
We are no longer allowed to call him our baby, because he quickly reminds us that he is in his big boy underwear. I never realized how much he hated diapers. It was a great motivator to keep him using the potty. He never refused to go and try so that he could keep his big boy underwear. |
|
Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you. As a first time mom your site and your experience was greatly appreciated.* I didn't like the conflicting advice I was getting from friends and relatives, but your book allowed me to make a plan based on the strengths of my son. |
|
Thank you again. And if I ever have another child, I will definitely start him or her on their 2nd birthday!* |
