I admit it, the first two days of this potty training business had me believing that my son was some kind of potty prodigy. He was peeing and pooping in the toilet and only had a few dribbles in his Pull Ups. Now, however, he's only giving me a drop or two in the toilet, then peeing full force into his Pull ups. What the hell? What happened? I think he's sick of it. At first it was a game. Something new and exciting to do! Now he wiggles around on the toilet and stands up midstream soaking me in a spray of pee. This morning he assured me that he didn't need to poop at all ("No poo poo! I don't need to!") while on the pot, then five minutes later a turd appeared in his underpants. Aaaarrrrggghh!
John tells me I'm taking him too often. That I need to give him more time between trips to the toilet. So I went from 30 minutes to one hour, and now we're soaking through a pull up between each trip. So, um, yea, that didn't work. I'm not ready to quit though, I know this is going to be a long process, and as much as I'm hating it, now that I know what I'm in for with potty training, I'm more determined than ever to get it done before I have two kids.
