Potty Training: Day 3

Our last official day of potty training (ha! I think this will go on for a while) went really well!

She *gasp* woke up completely and totally dry this morning!! And of course she didn't want to even get NEAR the potty for a few hours after waking up which gave me another heart attack. I hate that! But apparently she can hold it!

We only had 2 accidents today - the first was totally my fault as I was feeling like a total slacker for literally doing nothing but asking Violet to tell us when she had to go potty all weekend. SO I took her upstairs and we cleaned out a storage closet to get ready for our move (we close on Friday - HURRAY!). I was asking her every 3 seconds if she had to go, and of COURSE during one of the lulls she did indeed go. Luckily she was in her excersaucer (yup, a 2 year old still fits in a baby-sized excersaucer) so we had a nice plastic catch-tray.

The second was tonight and I am trying to figure out why she did it other than Jon had just gotten home and I think she wasn't thinking about the potty at all. Of COURSE she went on the side of the couch I did NOT have the towel on. Oh well.

BUT the good news is she went #2 on the potty like such a big girl AND woke up dry from her nap. Again, she waited a good hour or so to actually go after that. Now that I know she can hold it I won't be so worried about it (hopefully).

Tomorrow we may try to venture out of the house. We usually have playgroup on Tuesdays and that would be a safe place to try an outing. And we HAVE to go to the post office (what's new there?) so we'll do that too. Wish us luck!

Overall I'm very very pleased with the 3-day-potty training method. I know a ton of people were VERY skeptical but obviously this lady's methods WORK!
