Phase 1: COMPLETE...now what?


Here it finally is, the post you've been waiting for. It seems that we aren't the only ones riveted by B's potty progress. We've completed our three days of diaper free, crash course in potty training. Each day got better and on the third day there was only one accident...on T, but still good to only have the one accident. And according to the rules of the system, B has succeeded! So yay, B! Our only question is: now what? She's not telling us when she has to go or taking herself to the potty chair yet. And it sounds like we shouldn't really expect that for awhile yet. It would appear that we have a lot of potty watching still to do in our future. But the game has begun, and begun well. We've traded in the stickers for real undies (with Hello Kitty and TinkerBell on them) and B is really being a champ about it, and she'll have it down sooner, rather than later we know. Someday this will all be a sweet, distant memory; just a snapshot in time. Besides, nobody said it would be easy (really, NOBODY so much as used the word "easy" in the same sentence as "potty training") and she's actually doing better than we could have dreamed.
