...potty training when you have bigger responsibilities:
I'd say Grandma's winning the potty training war- Pedro's doing great with #1; he gets lots of practice since he seems to go every 3 1/2 minutes. Number 2 has yet to be released into his potty.
Please advise- how do we get him to do #2 on the potty?
Yea for grandma! There isn't any trick that I know of- and trust me when I say you do not want to know how my youngest son finally decided to. My girls were much easier, and my oldest refused, but once it was his idea- it was a done deal.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck!!!
I think you have to catch him when he is ready to go...or maybe it will just happen since he seems to be spending a good amount of time on the potty these days. As I told your mom, he is going to love these pictures when he is 15.
ReplyDeleteYeah you just have to catch them when they are ready to go #2, there is no other way that I have figured out. We are still(!!!!!!) having issues with poo six months into potty training Harry. He is loads better but now and then just when I think he has it down he has an accident.
ReplyDeleteThose are GREAT pictures.
ReplyDeleteGo Pedro!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Grandma is winning! I think having Pedro sit on the potty a lot and being consistent will produce positive #2 results. :-) I'm glad you have help with the potty training...lucky you!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to see more ideas for when we get to that point!! I'm seriously not going to train Justin until I'M ready.
ReplyDeleteHe might be 8 years old....
My kids had pretty predictable poops. Peristalsis usually triggers the bowels sometime within an hour after a meal is eaten. I would set the kids on the pot about half an hour after they ate, and ask them if their bellys felt hot. Weird I know, but I didn't know how else to describe it to them. My son was way easier then my daughter. Lulu still pees her pants at 4 1/2. I also did the throw out the poopy underwear thing and told them if they messed their new undies they were going in the garbage. With Lmx we went through 3 pair. Lulu went through like 6.
