today we decided to go full force into potty training. Sadie has been sort of ready for months now, going pee pee and poopoo in the potty when she decides too. The problem is she never really tells us she has to poopoo until its in her diaper already. Then she says, Momma I have to potty. Goes into the bathroom and pulls down dirty diapers. let's just say that's unpleasant and leave it at that. Anywho. I bought big girl panties with monkeys and elmo (to make it more exciting), got the potty chart and stickers ready all last weekend. daddy this morning said, alright Sadie lets put on our big girl panties and start this thing. From everything we have read and heard pull ups are wasteful and useless. They are basically a diaper they can pull on and off. Trust me, Sadie doesn't need any help in that department. While we do have some pullups we decided lets just go big girl panties and let her feel what is like to wet herself. Hopefully she won't like it and it will be that much easier.
Its starts off well. She comes downstairs and immediately goes peepee in the potty.. Hooray. We got stickers on our chart. She is excited about the stickers. Twenty minutes later she says she has to go potty again. She sits down on the frog potty, says i go poo poo. nothing. shucks. We will try again later. Ah but no, 5 minutes later she is in the corner pooping in her big girl panties. We explain why thats not good and say doesn't it feel funny in your big girl panties. Sadie looks up and says, no daddy. hm. maybe we aren't just ready yet. We will try big girl panties the rest of today to see what happens. Should promise to be a fun one!
