Days 36-42
8/2-8/8
Things are going well, I think. Accidents are still common at home but not at my sister's, ironically. He still poops in his underpants, which is frustrating. This last time, however, I was putting laundry away so I don't have the full story.
I suddenly heard him say, "I want YAY" which is what he says when he is done using the potty. I ran out and found him standing, NAKED, and pointing to the potty. There was poop in there. Soon I found out there was also poop in his underpants he took off himself. So he either started, took off his clothes, sat and finished or he dumped some of it onto the potty. He is too smart and both are plausible. I couldn't tell by simply looking at his hands because he had been touching himself, something we still need to work on.
I have stopped keeping my chart, sadly. I really enjoyed that but it just doesn't work anymore. He holds his pee for a very long time if he doesn't want to stop playing. Even if I sit him down and know he needs to pee he will hold it and tell me he wants to get up. I hope he stops this before he gets a UTI.
I have been wondering how long I will be keeping up these updates. Right now we are still in 'training' mode so I want to keep documenting the progress. But progress has slowed down quite a bit, the only thing missing now is for him to tell me when he has to go and for him to go himself when he needs to and not when he has already had an accident. I fear this is still far away. So for now I will continue my weekly update until we have reached these goals.
