| Goodbye Dora! |
We started 2011 with a diaper free home! Leila is officially toilet trained as of January 1. She would have been trained earlier if it weren't for the cute pull up pants. She loved those Pampers Dora pull up pants so much she didn't want to go to the washroom and pee on the potty. When we stopped buying, that's when she started using the potty more. So far no major accidents when we're outside, a few bed wetting episodes but none lately. Lance was about the same age when he got toilet trained.
Ideally, you start toilet training when they're able to walk but aside from that, it's their awareness and readiness to use the potty that's gonna bring you closer to successful toilet training. Early introduction and constant reminders are also great tools. Once they know what pee and poop means, orienting as to where they should go and bringing them even before they feel the urge will build a regular pattern and they would easily sink into the regimen.
Now, I can't wait to get rid of the feeding bottles as well. No amount of bribing with a cute sippy cup seems to work :D
