Last week I as convinced that Alex was almost potty trained. Tuesday through Friday he had no accidents and even woke up in the mornings dry. Then came Saturday, and it was as though we'd never started potty training at all. He was soaking through his pull ups between potty trips and didn't even try to poop in the potty at all. I even went back to shorter intervals between potty trips, but that didn't seem to help.
Sunday was a little better, probably because I started the day out with potty trips every 45 minutes. He still managed to soak two pull ups, but it was better.
Today, he's been perfect again. Woke up dry, no accidents and even asked to go to the potty this morning to poop. We spent the afternoon at the Natural History Museum and he used the public restrooms like a champ.
What's the deal? I'm blaming John. The only factor that was different between last week and this weekend was that John was home. I don't know why that would cause Alex to forget how to use the potty, but the proof seems to be that today, John's at work and Alex is suddenly back to being practically potty trained again. Coincidence? Maybe. But if it happens next weekend, I think we'll all know the truth.
