- Need go potty Mama! <-- the most recent addition!
We have been using pull ups and a potty seat for quite some time now, however Aylin's interest in using the potty at home has been very minimal. I tried not to push it, because I felt like it needed to be something she came to me with, or if she was asked if she needed to go and replied NO! I didn't want to force it. I didn't want it to become a frusting thing for her. Aparently that was a good plan! Off and on she has been trying during the day at school, but still didn't want to go at home. I would ask, and her immediate reaction was NO! The past week or so (I just noticed this yesterday from a potty chart at the school) she has been going more regularly on the potty at school. When I went to pick her up the teacher mentioned that she had done really well all day and that her pull ups had been dry all day. So after nap time they decided to try her in a pair of real panties and see how she did. She stayed dry ALL afternoon! So she came home in panties, and 4 more times at home she used the potty!!! I was so excited! She would quite randomly just start pulling on her skirt and then say "Need go potty Mama!" So we'd rush to the bathroom and she'd sit and go! She was so proud of herself. It was truly awesome. I couldn't be happier for my little bug who'se growing up!
