@jhysmath Preschool is our block right now. They insist on pull-ups for training, and we didn't find a lot of success with that method (no undies until they prove they can keep a pull-up dry). I'm waiting until summer to really jump in again and not talking to anyone about it - besides grandparents, who need to know since she's with them sometimes.
My daughter will poop on the potty 6 out of 7 days of the week, with that random day where she goes while napping. It's so hard to break a naptime pooper of their habit when it's just their routine!
@trapperkeeper87 daycare let our first go naked under dresses for the first week or so, but at 17 months my second did not have the ability to communicate well. She's learned poop and pee now and can say those but before it was hard to know what she wanted and she would just not go. I also think she's not a fan of the baby potty, but she's too young to go upstairs by herself and that's where daycare has their toilet. The pull ups are definitely not helping the situation she was in cloth until I tried potty training and did well for me in undies, I switched to pull ups for daycare because she can get those up and down herself, but she's just going in them now and it's frustrating. Also was frustrating on the delaying bedtime because she'd decide she needed to go to the bathroom instead of bed 10000000 times.
@trapperkeeper87 I seriously am questioning your daycare who requires pull ups for potty training. I HATE pull ups with passion and would much rather take kids to the bathroom 140000x's a day and change peed clothes. At one point the director of the daycare I worked at tried implementing a rule that kids had to be potty trained by the time they moved up to the 3 yr class. There was 1 child that hadn't mastered the skill yet. Like didn't even register that they'd peed in their underwear. By state law, the 3 yr class had to have a changing table because it's unrealistic to expect all 3yr olds to be potty trained. Not to mention it's detrimental to hold them back in a toddler class (15-30months) because of 1 skill that can take some time to learn. We pushed back and thankfully the child was moved up with all the other kids their age.
@babywiik the after school center I went to in elementary school was also a preschool. They had a requirement that to go the child had to be 3 and potty trained upon admission. I always think about how so many kids are not potty trained by 3 and how that must work. To get into this preschool you basically had to sign up to be on the waitlist when you were pregnant, and again the baby couldn't go until they were 3.
@babywiik Unfortunately that's pretty standard in my area, and literally the only complaint I have about her school. They do help them use the bathroom if they ask - whether diapered, pull-upped, or in undies - but most aren't asking at this age unless they're trained.
She only goes twice a week for three hours each day, but it's enough to not interest me in starting training again right now. I know they have to be potty trained by "3" at our preschool, but the way their system works is on an 8/1 birthday school year. So since my daughter is an October 2019 baby, she falls in the 1 year old class, and stays there the whole school year (the majority of her 5 classmates are also older like that). Next year she'll be in the 2 year old class, and by the 3 year old class she'll need to be out of diapers. It sounds confusing, but thankfully, given her birthday, it's totally doable.
