Potty Training Success!!!!!

Sooo, potty training to me was this huge unknown territory that I was frankly very scared to enter, which is probably why Juliet wasn't potty trained sooner, but we all come to our breaking point and I was just plain tired of changing 2 kids in diapers, so I vowed that I would give it a try. Our first round was right after her 3rd birthday in April. I introduced the panties and gave it a try, but didn't have a real plan, yeah....it didn't catch on too great. After many accidents, I decided we would wait a few more weeks after we traveled and moved in our new home. So a week after being in our new home, I was more prepared. I read up on strategies, counseled with seasonend mothers on their experiences and I finally felt ready. There was no turning back, this was it, I was not going back to diapers!! I lined the family room and hallway to the bathroom with plastic and towels and spent three whole days in the house (including my birthday!) till she finally got it. I couldn't be prouder of her. After three days she was pretty much potty trained, #1 and #2. She even stays dry all night and has only had a few accidents this last month of being trained! I am thrilled!! I can't believe she caught on so fast and she is doing so well at night! Whew! What a relief! I can check that off my list now! Seriously, motherhood is alot of unknowns and half the time I don't know if I am doing it right or doing it well enough, but when your child learns something completely new, I feel so proud! Yeah Juliet!!!!
