Comments on: It’s Potty Time! Part One http://www.fromcribstocarkeys.com/2008/02/its-potty-time-part-one/ Sun, 08 Jan 2012 04:36:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Sophia Levis http://www.fromcribstocarkeys.com/2008/02/its-potty-time-part-one/#comment-6 Sophia Levis Thu, 14 Feb 2008 19:06:00 +0000 http://www.fromcribstocarkeys.com/?p=6#comment-6 The thing about potty training was, at least for my three girls, that each of them was different. The baby did fine; she was potty trained in a week. The eldest had other issues, including urinary reflux, so that had something of an impact. The middle child was, strangely enough, somewhere in between.<br/><br/>The main thing, I think, is to not stress too hard. There are a hundred different methods out there, and everyone will tell you that theirs is the best. There's a hundred opinions on when is the best time, as well. At the end of the day, it's up to you as Mom and your child's readiness as to when and how it happens.<br/><br/>Good luck!

My oldest was close to three when he was finally trained, but having two kids in diapers is killing me. Then, after this week with the whole stomach thing, I don't want to see another diaper ever again!! Thanks for stopping by!

LOL I tried potty training my oldest when he was two and it was a nightmare. When he was three, it was perfect. I didn't even bother when my second came around -As soon as my second turned three, I looked at him and said, "this is the last day you'll be wearing diapers. You're a big boy, so you can use the potty now." He said, "okay." No accidents, no fighting, no crying . . . it was like magic. LOL You’re more ambitious than I was!
