Potty Training - Week 8

Days 50-56

8/16-8/22

Another late one.  I hate not having the energy of time to do these on Monday night or sometime Tuesday.

Anyway, potty training is going great, I think.  The week was typical with a few accidents, all at my place of course.

On Friday my sister was unable to take care of him so my mom came and took care of him.  I told her that he is now using the regular toilet exclusively and that he will not tell you when he needs to go so he needs to be asked about two hours after drinking.  I told her that she needs to watch for signs that he needs to go because he will always answer no and if four hours have passed go sit him anyway and he will likely pee.  I left worried about what I would find when I returned in regards to potty training.  Nicholas doesn't do well with change and my mom has not watched him for an extended period of time without me near by since he was about a year and a half.

Well, like always, I was surprised!

My mother said that she never had to ask him if he wanted to go pee.  He came up to her and told her every single time.  Not only that but he pooped!

When my mom left we went to Walmart to pick up the potty adapter we got.  It was very easy to build and put on the toilet.  I will give it a review once we have used it for a week.  So far, however, we both like it.  I like that I do not have to be holding him which is much easier on my knees and back.  He sits comfortably and looks more relaxed like when he was on the little potty.  I think he likes that he can climb it too.
