Do you really want a child too concerned with their poopoo? :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17410050443055213788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28689122.post-7710183634413989372008-05-21T16:39:00.000-07:002008-05-21T16:39:00.000-07:00I'm glad you're feeling better!

We have been letting him pee like daddy into the toilet but I am not trying to go anywhere with that at this time. My mom whom, as you know, had 7 kids thinks potty training at 3 yrs is OKAY! With Henry I can see it escalating into a power struggle and I don't want to fight that fight. If he has his mind made up then it's not going to happen. Sounds like he and Stella are similar that way.<BR/><BR/>When I was sorta trying to potty train I always kept the potty on hand like in the living room, kitchen, etc. that seemed to help. However, there was an occasion where he peed while standing next to the potty despite the fact that he had peed many times in the potty. Go figure.<BR/><BR/>He also drinks a TON of milk before bed right now so I don't dare try to train yet.yer mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01572361309349906929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28689122.post-87697946551012615282008-05-21T15:54:00.000-07:002008-05-21T15:54:00.000-07:00Not that my sister is a model for how to raise kid...Not that my sister is a model for how to raise kids or anything, but my nephew who just turned 3 in April still wears diapers.<BR/><BR/>My almost 5 year old niece is potty trained in that she doesn't pee or poop in her pants, but she still hasn't quite mastered the toilet. Only a few months ago she was still asking for help with the wiping thing, and just a few weeks ago when we were in Dallas last I hung out with my dad for the ten minutes of plunging it took to unclog the toilet after she "successfully" used it.<BR/><BR/>This being my prime exposure to kids I didn't even realize that you could teach them this young. I guess it's just another of those depends on the kid thing.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323955138594701604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28689122.post-45487684574834764572008-05-21T15:43:00.000-07:002008-05-21T15:43:00.000-07:00oh glad to hear things are calming down and going ...oh glad to hear things are calming down and going better.
