how the potty thing is going...

we started. last saturday. hard and heavy. every 30 minutes (as angela recommended). and since my child seems to work off of rewards, we added smarties - her favorite candy. plus panties - dora, plain, and hello kitty.

saturday we had 1 accident. and it was REALLY bad - but to her defense, she had taken miralax and couldn't control "when" it happened.

sunday the only accident was at church. like the one above. i can't even talk about it right now.

monday tommy stayed home with her because of the holiday. she didn't have any accidents!!! YEA!!!

don't know about how it went at daycare tues and wed. but thursday - NO ACCIDENTS!!!

so i'm hoping we're on the upswing of this potty thing. i'll keep you updated...

Good luck. I've tried with Elly and she has absolutley no interest. She practically cries when I try to get her to sit on the potty. I guess I will have a to give her a little longer.

We are starting all of that "fun" stuff this weekend. Bryce likes to sit on the potty, but he very rarely does anything. We will see how it goes. I got similar advice about going every hour whether they have to or not! Good Luck!
