So the week has been long and she was doing well until we got to Tuesday and we had used every single pair of underwear we had bought her. So, I did laundry and of course had her in a pull-up well doing that. Well that back fired. I mean she is a hard one. Poop in the toilet master, the one thing that is suppose to be the hardest is the easiest and the pee is another story.
Being pregnant and already have horrible mood swings,
adding potting training is not great for the nerves but we have a week and half to accomplish this or at least getting down to at least one accident a day not a million. I truly don't understand she is really good for going most of the time and others she just thinks it hilarious when she pees on the floor. Like I stated in my last blog I really don't believe in treating them for using the toilet I just praise her and let her know that a she is a big girl but what do you do for when she pees purposely on the floor and in her undies. Ugh!! I am so, frustrated.
So... The last few days she has been in pull-ups AGAIN>>> I know MOMMY FAIL!
She goes away this weekend to my parents along with her sisters and I plan to start next week again with potty training... starting Tuesday since Monday I have my 12 week appointment and ultrasound 😀.

Potty Training A 4 Year Old
Now I am not an expert at all in this territory believe with two already out diapers 8 and 6, I vaguely remember Potty Training my first child, although I do remember what happened with DD#2. She was 3 and I did the shirt with nothing else on method. We had a week and I was confident she was ready. So out we went to Wal-Mart and bought her underwear that she picked and if I remember correctly they were Strawberry shortcake. The first day she worn nothing and had maybe 1 accident, every time she would go I would do a huge celebration, dance and give her a prize... Candy! The second day she had no accidents and I was oh this is a piece of cake, she is the easiest I have ever had to train and She is going to be potty trained no problem and thats what happen by the third she would go when she needed to and she started wearing underwear and had no accidents what so ever. So Day 4 we decided that we needed to go shopping well heres where it got interesting. She wouldn't tell me when she had to go and now most people would put a diaper on their kid but me I put underwear and pair of pants (of course) and brought two extra sets (I also brought diapers just incase i ran out). Now she only had one accident and that was because she couldn't hold her pee and we made to the toilet but in time for her to take her pants to pee. So technically speaking she did go in the toilet but we had to clean it up and change out pants and underwear and continue shopping. The next few days were great until we got to the weekend. She decided she want to regress and wanted to become a baby again and wear diapers. Wanted nothing to do with the underwear and the process of going to the potty. I was upset, I thought that she had it under control and there would be no diapers and we would only have to buy one set of diapers for DD#3 but I was wrong. So, she went back into diapers. Now through the week I had her in a diaper at night so that didn't change. I felt that maybe she had been a bit rushed and now she didn't have the confidence she needed. So I allowed to have her diapers and when was comfortable about a week later I found her one night with her diaper off and sleeping. Now I wanted to put the diaper back on back she was so awkwardly position I left her. I felt that if she wanted to have it on she would. The next morning she put her underwear after peeing and when I checked her bed, it was dry. From this point on she was done. Potty trained Ready to go. I was in shock. It was a proud day in our household and we definitely celebrated by going to the Dollarama and going to Wal-mart and buying some more underwear.
Moving on to today... for DD#3 she is currently 4 and few months and I have tried to potty her in the past and failed. She was doing great and then regressed for a long time. So, now there is reward there is the reminder. I am not going to reward my child for something that I know she knows how to do. She is lazy and would rather wear pull-ups. So, we are now officially into day #2 and so far Day 1 we had 2 accidents and that was it. She knows when she has to go. She has also gone poop twice. So I would say that Day 1 was a huge success!! Lets see how Day 2 goes... I will update you all tomorrow!!
