Thumper seems to have decided that today is the day that she will toilet-train. So far 4 out of 6 wees have successfully made it into the potty or the toilet.
- She woke in the morning and wanted her (dry!) night-nappy taken off, saying she needed to do a wee. She successfully did her entire over-night wee in the potty.
- Later in the morning she made a few attempts to wee on the potty but nothing came out, then about an hour later, she wet her undies.
- Another wee success - this time in the toilet whilst we were out visiting Great-Aunt-F.
- Later again, another attempt to wee in the toilet, but no success so the nappy went back on, only to be wet a few minutes later.
- Just as we were about to get in the car to go home, Thumper made sure she was keeping us in our place by filling her nappy (number twos this time!).
- At home again, lots and lots of false alarms before another wee mostly made it into the potty... just a bit on the floor in the rush to get to the potty in time.
- And just now, another success - one wee entirely contained in the potty!
Immediately before racing to the potty/toilet, Thumper is heard to yell "I've got a wee coming!" (or sometimes just "Wee!").
The main thing that seems difficult for Thumper is actually letting go once she is on the potty/toilet. She's mostly fine with holding on till she gets there, but then can't seem to let the wee out. But given today's efforts, I'm sure she'll work it out soon.
I can't wait till we're a nappy-free household! I think we might even have a party!
