How is PT going? We're on day 2 and I feel like I could have written your post word for word. I'm hoping it clicks sometime tonight or tomorrow.

    Hey!  Hope you are hanging in there ok.  It was so much harder than I expected.  I did two full days and gave up, didn't even try the third.  :(  I feel guilty about it but I had had enough and felt like Ethan just wasn't ready for it.  He was nowhere near ready for nap or night in underwear (tried both and poor baby woke up soaking wet and crying) and I was fine with that.  I would have been thrilled to just keep him in pullups for sleeping.  At the end of day two I decided that since he had shown zero progress (and I was ready to pull my hair out!) I would wait a few months and try again.  I am frusterated that I didn't go with my gut on this one.  I haven't felt that he was ready but that e-book made it sound like he really could be and I didn't want to miss out on the opportunity and wait too long.  When we try it again, I am NOT doing it alone.  My husband was at work most of the time.  I didn't think it would be a big deal since they actually suggested only one parent but I think that is nuts.  It was so hard to do alone.  I really hope I was right to stop and not do the 3rd day...  :/

    Yeah, we're hanging in there still. I didn't think it was going to be easy, but I will admit it was harder than I expected. He's had some improvement but is still starting in his underwear most of the time. We're giving it until the end of the week to see how he progresses.

    Don't feel guilty if you don't think he is ready and if you aren't ready yet. I would definitely do it on a long weekend with your DH. If I hadn't had DH home with me helping out (especially while I feed the baby) I would have lost my mind completely. I don't agree with that part of the ebook. I think it should be a united front helping to PT and it would go smoother. Good luck next time!
