Ok, so we've been at it for a few weeks (read months) now and Lucas is still not completely potty trained. We have made it this far: he manages to stay dry when we're not home. That's about it. At home he's constantly wetting and dirtying his pants, which is really frustrating to me. Doesn't it make more sense to do better at home than away? I don't know... I think I'm starting Kimberly now, so that by the time she's 2 she'll be done lol. This is getting a little ridiculous. Sunday and Monday he did sooo good, I thought that he'd do better this week... nope. I think a lot of it is laziness on his part for not wanting to stop playing to use the bathroom. His pants are right there, so why not fill them? Grossss. Anyone have any tips for me to get it to click?
Daniel has not had a wet bed for a long time now, so we are excited for that. He has done really good with the staying dry at night thing, makes me wonder why we didn't do it sooner... Maybe that should be how I get things to click with Lucas? I don't know if that'll work as he's only wearing pull-ups at night anyway, but I'm doing a lot more laundry to make sure he has enough underwear for the day...
I did put Kimberly on the toilet to see if she'd be scared like the boys were, but she did really good and even did a couple farts. haha Who know's maybe she'll be trained before Lucas! She's growing up way too fast. I can't believe that in a month she'll be 1 already! Where has the time gone?
Congrats to Kyle and Susan on the birth of another daughter Kaylee Sue! (Such imagination!) haha Hope all is going well for you!
Well, the boys are for some reason emptying the towel closet, so I better get going....

Caleb still had those accident issues at 4 yrs. I finally left him naked while we were at home (lol not in public! Can you imagine?) and it really helped him to know better when he had to go. I also found out that he went ALOT. In the first 1/2 hour he was naked he would run to the potty 4-5 times. I realized he wasn't ready to potty train and left him in pullups when he wasn't naked. (to avoid cleaning the constant messes) It only took a week of being naked part of the day at home before he caught on better to the urges of having to go potty. After that he almost never went in his pullup anymore. That's what worked for us anyways, isn't it crazy how different each of them are??? Just when you think you got something down (like potty training) the next kid messes up your theory! LOL
ReplyDeletetotally... and when Lucas is done, I'll have Kimberly to start, and just watch, she'll be a week and completely trained, day AND night!! (here's to hoping so anyway)
