Diary of a Mad Pregnant Women Trying to Potty Train a Toddler - Day 4

Day 4 - Thursday

Today was a better day. Lizette went poop in the toilet TWO times! I was very happy. After the first time she pooped. She was washing her hands then peed. At least it was in the bathroom and I had my shark steam mop to pick it up right away. My mother-in-law was going to watch Lizette while Tyler and I had to go somewhere, and of course she had another accident right before I was going to drop her off. Diane, my mother-in-law, was nice enough to be willing to watch a potty training toddler. I thought she wouldn't have an accident for her, since she had an accident right before we left and she already pooped two times. But, I was wrong. She went pee and poop for her. I think it is harder when we are somewhere new or if Tyler and I are not around.

Lizette does like to play the "poop" game. Right before she goes poop. She will come and tell you and you will put her on the toilet and two seconds later she will say that she is all done. She will do this a couple of times before she has to go. I think she is still trying to realize how her body works.

At least tomorrow Tyler has the day off. So I will have lots of extra support, and I won't be the only one picking up poop and pee.
