Okay, so the thought of 72 hours trapped in the house with already a total of several hours spent just sitting and waiting by the potty is not all that thrilling. SO...I got brave yesterday. I needed to run to the grocery to pick up just a couple of ingredients, so we ventured out! I put a diaper around the outside of Carter's underwear, and much to my surprise he was still dry when we got home!!! :) He actually held it and went as soon as we got home. Hooray!
Our little success, despite a morning of battle of the wills/grumpy pants, encouraged me to try naptime without a diaper...and guess what?!?! He woke up dry!!! I couldn't believe it!! Go Carter!! Unfortunately, he still had several other accidents during the day, but I'd like to see the glass as half full...After 49 visits to the potty, you have to stay motivated somehow, so I choose to consider the positives...I've already replaced the diaper changing pad on his dresser with a row of baseball caps and pictures. Wishful thinking? Perhaps, but what else have I got??? :) More to come...
