Potty Training: Second Time Around

WARNING:

This Post contains talk about poop.  You've been warned!

Boo LOVES Tinkerbell!  Anything Tinkerbell.  She is also a fan of the Disney Princesses, but Tinkerbell definitely ranks first.  Boo decided that she was ready for Potty Training(PT), for two days she refused to poop in her diaper.  The poor kid was hurting so badly from holding her poo, that I felt so sorry for her.  I had wished that I could do anything to help her!  Finally I decided to buy a little potty for her.  After about an hour of coaxing, she had her first poop on the little potty!!  As a reward, I took her to Target and bought her a Tinkerbell nightgown.  She thinks the nightgown is the best EVER!!  Funny enough though for the last 3 days now, she had insisted on using the big potty instead of the little one.  I encourage her to do what she pleases, so long as she continues to PT.

Its amazing really at how well Boo has taken to PT.  Certainly more willing than her Brother ever was!  Though I was also pretty lucky with Bubbie, he also PT fairly easily overall.  Honestly though I thought this would be easier the second time around, but I was WRONG!  It's still just as frustrating as it was the first time around, but I am loving the fact that we are DONE with DIAPERS!!  Is there anything better than that?!  Given Boo does have to wear a Pull-Up during the night, but still cheaper than buying diapers every week! 

Boo started PT last Thursday evening, since we started she has had only a couple of accidents.  Once in the car when she fell asleep in the car(to be expected), the other two were during naptime(also to be expected).  Overall though she is doing exceptionally well!!  Today though was not one of her best, so hopefully tomorrow she will find her motivation again.  I love though how she feels the need to go potty every couple of minutes, even without us even being in the bathroom!  Boo seems like such a natural and let us hope that this continues.
