So last week I gave the 3 day PT guide a try. I did this plan to a TEE for 3 staright days! I am proud to say that DS hasn't had a poop mess since day 2 morning and even that was half in underwear, held in, finished in potty. He has told us or someone every time! As for pee, since Friday he has only leaked 2x and very minimal. He knows he starts, stops it, and then finishes in potty. He has woken up 5 mornings bone dry and pee'd once he got up on the potty.
I am so proud of him (and myself I must say ) I NEVER thought this would be the results, I was hoping for the best and am so proud. I would highly recommend this program but I will say that I was following it to a tee and feel like a broken record and was exhausted. We went OOT this weekend and he was with Nana, she read the book as well and we didn't miss a beat.
Sorry, I am gushing, I just never expected this and am so happy! Thank you all!
Re: Awesome success here!
Also, wanted to add we were potty training virgins and he had and wouldn't sit on a toilet prior to Wednesday.
As for rewards: we didn't do anything but a cookie once in a while and extremly crazy amounts of praise. He did fall in love with an elmo potty training book though and last night when DH and I got home and after he pooped on his own, we gave him a $5 small Elmo doll we bought for him over the weekend. We said "Elmo came all the way from Mass to tell you how proud he was of you" Needless to say Elmo hasn't left his side and it was an awesome reward for him.
OK I am done bragging
That is great news! We will be trying it next week and I hope DS does as well as yours has!
awww...it is such a great birthday! I am keeping my hopes up for a Halloween baby this time around, it's only fair
