Potty Training Taylor - Day 1

Taylor has been ready to potty train since January. The only thing holding me back was trying to get settled in and the fact that it was freezing outside. In our house, I prefer the 3 Day Potty Training method. It also means that my child will only wear underwear because it's just easier for clean up. January temps and potty training just don't go together. We also had some crazy busy months and I held off due to all of our travels. I need a good straight week where I don't leave the house, just to make sure they have it down pat.

After a trip to the grocery store where I stocked up on anything and everything I would need for the week, I decided that Monday we would begin the process. I had made a potty chart a few weeks ago and put it up for her to see in the morning. She was so excited about her new Tinker Bell & Minnie Mouse underwear that she couldn't wait to get started.

Day 1 - 23 successful trips to the potty and only 3 accidents. She still hasn't gone poop, which I know will be a challenge, but we will work hard on that tomorrow. Btw, I pumped her full of fluids all day. She always had a drink in hand and I took her every 15 minutes. Tomorrow we will spread it out to every 20 minutes.

Funny tidbit: One year ago this week, I potty trained Mason.

Oh gosh we are both thinking along the same lines:). Jax just turned 2 at the end of May and I am thinking about starting him next week once I'm done with teaching for the summer. Please post how this goes everyday if you get a chance. Good luck!!
