Today's the DAY!!!

Well, can you believe it? Tressa is ready to be potty trained. Yep, today is the day we start. We bought her some Dora pull ups and she will be sitting on the toilet every 20 minutes. This is my first time potty training, so any tips will be helpful. Thanks. I will give you an update as we progress in our success towards potty training.

Funny. We just decided this morning that Natalie is ready to be potty trained. We're going to start next week.

Patience. Patience. And more patience. Good luck.

(Don't ever make it a fight. You can force them to sit, but you can't force them to go.)

No helpful tips here. Sorry. I hate potty training. It's the worst.

Just rememeber all the billions of people on the earth and most of them are potty trained! It is doable. Stay home for at least a week so she can go on the same toilet. Don't force it , she'll do it in her own due time. Every child is different. I tried the every 20 minutes with Karolina and it frustrated her. She learned to pay attention to her body and each time she'd have an accident she would get closer and closer to the bathroom. By day 2 she was making it to the potty. Good Luck!

I also waited until my girls were both three years old. They weren't frustrated and neither was I.
