For quite a while now, we've been sitting each of the boys on the big boy potty before they get in the bath tub at night. Everyone once in a while, one of them would pee-pee, but it was very inconsistent. Then, we went through a period of time where we had to fight with Jackson to get him to even sit on the potty.
Everything changed a few weeks ago with Jackson.
He sat on the potty one night, and he went pee-pee. The next night, he fought me and didn't want to sit on it. The next night, he sat right down and went pee-pee again. He has went pee-pee in the big boy potty every night for about 2 weeks now! I think when he was fighting with us, he didn't have to go, and he knew that!
So, after he again went potty last night, and we made a big deal about it, I told him I think its about time to throw his diapers away. We've talked about how he needs to tell mommy and daddy (and Miss Bianca at daycare) when he needs to go potty. And that when he does that, he gets to wear big boy underwear like daddy, and we'll throw the diapers away.
So, after our conversation last night, Brian walked into the bathroom to help with baths. I looked at Jackson and I said, "Jackson, what are we going to do with your diapers?" His response, "Throw them away!"
Guess I just need to get serious and get him trained to tell us that he needs to go so we can "throw them away!".
