I have boys and they are definitely different in terms of potty training - I wish Asa would pee vertically :-) Xavier was trained when he was about 3. DH pushed it before that and he resisted until he was ready. He wore plastic pants, thick training underwear, and pull-ups depending on what was convenient. He wore the thick underwear to bed at night for a while just in case. I personally don't think that the pull-ups slowed things down at all. I'm waiting until Asa is ready to do it himself. He sits on the potty before taking a bath most nights, but it's completely up to him. He sometimes tells us when he needs a change, too. Asa is definitely showing signs of being ready and DH and I are content to let him do it on his own. My advice is to wait, but if the sitter is pushing it, try to use the same methods she is so Kaity doesn't get confused. -Bonnie, mommy of Xavier 5/13/99 and Asa 5/28/02 ----- Original Message ----- From: Heather Burke To: may02 Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 5:35 PM Subject: [may02] another question for experienced mommas
kaity's sitter started potty training last tuesday - diapers off! she forgot to tell me to get those cloth training pants with the extra thicknesses between the legs, so k is wearing pull-ups. she personally thinks those slows down 'training'. the other girl's mom got the cloth pants at walmart but they are not there now. ideas???? miss prodigious-pisser blasts thru pull-ups. she holds it on the potty and goes when shes vertical. sigh. shes won a sticker each day for accidently going in the potty but hasent connected that she has the ability to consciously earn more stickers.
