So yesterday marked the first day Evan ASKED to wear pull ups and sit on the potty. And I guess it was a success?? At daycare, he exhibited much 'control' or stubbornness!! He sat on the potty once or twice during the morning hours and no success... but no accidents either. He held everything!!! Then he wore a diaper for nap and his body knew it was used for "release"... and he was happy to put his pull up on again. If this keeps up, maybe we will never have an "accident" once he's wearing underwear... one can only wish!!
Again, I'd like to thank my aunt Brenda and family for giving us the book: Zack's Potty... Now I am not saying that this book will work for everyone or anyone else but it certainly lays a great foundation. Evan can seem to relate to Zack and what he's experiencing. The book was given to Evan for his birthday back in November and it's taken over 6 months for him to get an interest and it took Evan seeing his friends his age (who are boys) using the potty.
Let's hope this trend continues.... but I hear stories that it may take MONTHS and others tell me that if the child is ready, it can be done in a month :) I'll definitely keep you all updated on the progress (or regression if its the case :)
