Our 3 day PT progress so far.....

Liz342

We started the 3 day potty training method with DD Saturday morning.  We're on Day 2.  Yesterday she held her pee for hours and ended up peeing just a little on the potty a couple times and peed herself 3 or 4 times.  She peed a little in her bed when she woke up this morning but it was up by her pillow where she was sitting when she woke up and the rest of her bed was dry, so she didn't pee at all over night.

Today has been completely different.  She has been having small amounts of pee dribbling down her legs almost ALL day.  At one point, we just took her undies off and let her run naked from the bottom down.  However, she did completely empty her bladder on the toilet one time.  Before, it was just tiny amounts.  I don't know if we have made any progress or not?  When we put her on the potty she sits for about 2 seconds and then gets up.  We don't force her to stay as per this method.

If anyone else has used this method, how did it work for you?  Did anyone cheat and do diapers at night? (I kind of want to but also want to follow this to a T for the 3 days at least).  We have a potty chair and a potty seat on the big toilet.  She seems to like the potty chair better but I was hoping to just get her used to the big toilet- how did you guys approach this issue?

Also, do you think it sounds like we are making any progress?  I think we will stick it out for the 3 days and maybe a couple after that but if she isn't getting it by then, we will probably quit and re-try in a couple months.

Thanks!!

ETA: Also wanted to add she has not pooped in 3 days.  We are giving her Miralax because she has major constipation issues but so far she hasn't gone so she is either going to be majorly constipated any time now or she will probably have loose stools so I don't know what to do about this.....
