Diaper-free life

Monday, July 28, 2014
Day 2 of the 3-day potty training went well, still had night accident(s) and 1-2 accidents during the day but overall he was pretty well trained by the end of the day.  He disliked doing #2's in his underwear but would still try to hide it.

Day 3 we went out in the morning for several hours and he did great.  He even went in the travel potty seat I brought to the park that he had never used before.  We are just doing toilets for the most part and he likes them so I wasn't sure he would use a potty seat even, but he sat down no problems in a private pavilion at the park.  He still had trouble with #2's.

After the training was over we have been just continuing with being watchful of him throughout the day but generally he is fine and I expect we'll get in a routine soon and he will get better at telling me when he has to go.  We still have wet nights but we are not planning to go back to diapers at all because it's not a big deal and this way he will learn to hold it longer and to better tell me when he needs to go.  I plan to get him up at midnight and 4 am for awhile just to go quickly and I think this will be a good schedule for us until we can phase those wakeups out.  He doesn't seem to mind when I come get him in the middle of the night and he goes back to sleep but there are always 1-2 times/night that he doesn't call out until after he's already gone so I think I should just wake him and get him in the habit of going at regular intervals.

And that's my too-much-information post on our potty training adventure!
