Going to the Potty
Posted on June 15, 2008 - Filed Under The Daily Doodle
We have ventured into our second phase of potty training. One of Maggie’s teachers at school said she should be ready in a couple weeks to stop wearing diapers/pull-ups and start wearing underwear. Sherry said she goes to the bathroom regularly at school and stays dry most of the day. Of course, she should still wear pull-ups at nap time and nighttime. To be honest, I am not ready to start potty training. I guess I was expecting her to become interested in going potty on the toilet at 2.5 years old. It’s not that I want to keep her in diapers (a baby), I just don’t think I am ready to deal with public toilets. Maggie is still not consistent with using the potty, however she always tells us when she has to go poop and when she has already gone pee. Strange, but she would rather poop in the toilet and pee in her diaper. I always thought it would be the other way around? We haven’t really been pushing her to use the toilet, but we do the congratulatory ‘hurray!’ when she does use it. I finally bought her a couple pairs of the Gerber training pants. I must admit, it has been quite amazing to watch Maggie evolve from a 9lb infant to a running, tricycle peddling, 7 word sentence speaking toddler. And now potty training? It’s all happening way to fast -
