It's been 2 weeks since I first started training Micah, and 9 days since I officially quit training him, lol. Well, Micah decided he wasn't ready for me to quit, so he has continued going on the potty even though I put him back in diapers. I would say over the 9 days that he's been doing this, he's clean and dry about 90% of the time. So much so, that his wake up time has shifted about an hour (now at 6am vs. 7am) because he's aware he has to go potty and is calling or me...ugh! I had to remind myself that I wanted this :).
Our biggest issue has become pooping, and I'm realizing that's not too uncommon. He's gone 2 times so far on the potty, once in the bathtub (apparently his birthday gift for Christian, haha) and a couple of time in his diaper. I think there's some fear to doing it on the potty, for whatever reason, so he's holding it in at times and therefore causing him to become constipated...so when he does try and go is starts to hurt him. I'm sure he'll get over this sooner than later, but it makes me concerned about going back to his big boys until there's a little more regularity. I did think of picking up some training pants because I think he's done with diapers at this point.
I'm so proud of how well he's done through this process and have to remind myself of that when he does happen to have an accident. We will get there and pretty soon I'll be asking where's my little boy that needed my help a lot more than he does now?
