Thank you! I am near the beginning of potty training my 3yr old twin boys. I was waiting for the “signs ” so we could begin. My boys like to sit on the potty but not do anything and they LOVE washing their hands but as soon as we pull up their underpants… It’s like a signal gets sent to their brain that that is when it’s time to go potty. So today I think I have spent more time cleaning up accidents than anything else. I can’t wait until we get to the part where I get to look back and laugh. 🙂

But ya know what? He’s 7 now and he eventually got potty trained even though the 3 day method didn’t work for us at all. 🙂

With the 2nd one, I just refuse to push him. He’s doing it about 1/3 of the time every day and I,like you, figure it’ll come in time.

My mother was all over me about it because, apparently, I was a potty prodigy. She claims I was less than a year old when I was “trained”. Granted, I was walking at 8 months, but seriously? Potty-trained? I was pre-verbal FFS!) I ask you, if you have to spend every waking moment watching for “the look”, rush the kid to the toilet, take down the pants, etc. who is really the one trained?
For my second daughter, I was convinced she would be in high school in diapers. She wanted nothing to do with it. Nothing. She was old enough that I tried bribing her with the promise of a two-wheeler! Her response? “That’s okay, I’ll just use Stephen’s.” (a neighbor kid)
Then one day, it was all over. They were just doing it. I’m happy to say none of then went to school in diapers.

So what if he’s the biggest kid in diapers everywhere we go? I’ll just say he’s only 14 months old and big for his age. ; )

I can’t exactly relate, because it was way easier for us, but I did often wonder “I don’t teach any 8-year-olds who wear diapers, do I?” I don’t, so don’t stress too much. he’ll be so ready someday and you’ll probably be quite sad. I always feel like I’m pushing so hard for the next big milestone and when we get there I’m almost devestatingly nostalgic for the good-ole’, simpler times. Aah, life. *takes a long, solemn swig from a glass of red wine*
