Our house is on day 2 of lock down. I decided since I don't want to take Kinley out of the house, now would be the perfect time to potty train Carter! We are not leaving the house until Carter is potty trained. Diapers are only allowed on for bedtime and the occasional nap! Day 1 was only accidents. That's ok, just a starting point. Day 2: Carter peed 11 times in the potty!!!! He had 6 accidents (1 poopy one). I know, I am asking myself the same thing......is his bladder really small or has he finally figured out that when he pee's on the potty he gets a new car?! He was in the same underwear from noon until bed time (minus his nap). He was wet after his nap but I think that was my fault. I think he was up a little before I noticed and peed before I got to him. I am so excited that he has figured out how to actually pee while on the potty! I know we still have a bit of work to do, but we are very excited around here! I let Carter decide what he wanted for supper, pizza! (It was his second choice, I had to convince him that we had cereal for breakfast, so maybe we could have something else for supper!) The next thing we really need to work on is him noticing when he has to go. He is getting really good about going when I put him on, but won't tell me when/if he has to go. Something I need to work on, figuring out a different reward system! He got 6 new cars today...... I think tomorrow I will do a sticker system. Once he pees 5 times on the potty he can get a car. I will let you know how it goes :)
The video I got of him today is priceless. It started off as a video of him playing with his new cars, but then he spotted the camera (hence the cheese face) so I turned it into a tell everyone about our exciting adventures in potty training. This was mid-afternoon so he peed 6 more times after this!
Hopefully tomorrow is just as exciting with a few less accidents!
