How's Everyone Feeling Right Meow?

[Athene]

Nuh-uh, no way, nohow

Okey doke.

I had a great day today and I'm exhausted in a really good way.

Omg, I will take any advice on potty training that you have to offer!!!  We bought him a toddler potty (he turned two in August) and I know it's still early, but I just have this feeling it's going to be a nightmare.  He will only sit on it if he's wearing a pamper; never bare-bottomed, which leads me to believe he's well aware of what I expect him to do on it, lol.   He also really enjoys filling it up with elbow macaroni.  [emoji41]

Elbow macaroni? LOL

One thing that I think helped is when we moved from diapers to underwear, we got them some special underwear (sort of like boxer briefs, with ninja turtles and batman on them) that they didn't want to get dirty. I think that helped more than anything. 

But two is pretty young. Sounds like he's making some progress, if he'll sit on his potty, even if it's with a diaper on. Won't be too much longer till he's out of them

Wow, this has become a thread of its own! 

How am I feeling right meow? Well, I made it past 3:30 am, so that's a fairly good amount of sleep even though I spent the bulk of yesterday making up for the previous night.

So, there's that shred of optimism to start out the day.

"It's Potty Time" worked for my eldest when he was 3. I had him watch it once or twice day for a few days, in place of a "good" show.
He absolutely hated it; It drove him up a wall.

I know he started going to the bathroom regularly, just so he wouldn't have to watch the video.

The worst, (best) song is at 9:30: "Super Duper Pooper". 

O. M. G. That is the best/worst thing I've ever seen. LOL. As torture devices go I can see how this was an effective and useful motivator! [emoji13]

Very tired.

Weird mix of feelings. At least the weather is nice sitting on the green.

Let him walk around the house naked waist-down. He'll say something to you before he goes -- tell him to do so. That's how we trained my son ... took four ot five days.

Whoa!  Five days?  That's definitely worth a try!  I'll let you know how we do.  [emoji41]  

One of my best friend's eldest sons turned four a few months back. I was over the other week and my friend asked his son did he need to go to the toilet as he was acting a bit fidgety, the son said "no" in that little small voice young boys sometimes put on. Five minutes later he was hopping and heising around the kitchen shouting that he needed to go right now.

Frustrated at how my body handled anything this weekend. Dying to get out and do something on my own terms (plus some errands). Better day tomorrow. Workouts usually do it for me.

[Jackalope]

better.
