Potty Training Update

Okay, so I’ve decided to finally get serious about this potty training thing. I’ve tried everything so far. Timmy wears Pull-Ups during the day, but that only makes it easier and quicker to change his diaper. He isn’t motivated to go on the potty. As motivation to stay dry, the car designs on them disappear when they get wet. He thought the disappearing cars was great, so he made the cars disappear. I tried the Cool Alert pull-ups. They get cold when they get wet and I thought this would be uncomfortable and he’d want to go in his potty instead. He never even noticed.

I’m unwilling to let him run around the house naked. I want to keep the cool big-boy underwear (the ones with Spiderman and stuff on them) for a reward when he no longer needs a diaper. So, I’ve bought some plain white underwear and rubber pants. The rubber pants really look silly on him, but they will keep the furniture safe.

He looks so cute in his little tightie whities, though. And, so far this morning, he hasn’t peed in them. We’ve gone on the potty together twice already! Keeping my fingers crossed, because pre-school starts soon.

Say Something!
