I can't believe I haven't even posted on this yet! At the beginning of May I decided to start potty training Ethan. Yes I know he was just a few months over 2 years old but he had been going potty on the toilet every night before bath. So I decided to give it a go. Well the weekend went better than expected bit when others told me boys are harder than girls, they were right. My daughter was potty trained in one weekend so I had pretty high hopes for my little guy! But I did go into it knowing he was just 2 so I was ok if it took a while. I was proud of him he was at least going in the potty at least half of the time so I felt was getting somewhere. I have to say the thing with boys is that they get so distracted so we have to "pause" everything and "freeze" so he doesn't feel he will miss out on anything while he takes the whole minute to go potty. Now training a boy is very foreign to me so yes I was peed on almost every time the first few weeks and not to mention that my toilets have to be cleaned almost each time!
Well we are now two months in and last week was our first full day with no accidents! He now tells me when he has to go with a few reminders. We are still working on going in public restrooms or other peoples houses but we will get there. Accidents or not I am so proud of my little guy he is doing better then expected even if it takes him a few months to master! No ever said potty training a boy was easy!!! So for all you mommies out there that are potty training good luck!
