Potty Training [3]

Ahhh another potty entry. 

This morning Bug asked for my hand and said he needed to pee pee on the potty. Clever boy! Once he did he gave himself a cheer and a big clap. I gave him lots of praise. Then he wanted to empty it into the toilet and flush, which we done. Two minutes later we repeated. Another two minutes we repeated it again. 

I put his nappy back on. A few hours later he asked for the potty again (he did have a wet nappy in between). He then went for a nap and when he woke up he played outside and when he came in he had a dirty nappy. He knows when he needs the toilet because he leaves the room and if I walk in he says mummy go away. Once I'd cleaned him up I kept his nappy off (mostly because he didn't want a nappy on), since he'd already had a dirty nappy and had been doing so well peeing on his potty I wasn't too worried. It was off for about two hours without any accidents and few actual pee pee's (that we flushed!). 

I'm so proud and he's doing so well. I'm just going to keep following his lead with it. No pressure. I think after a few days of nappy free time in the afternoon I'll start encouraging him to use his potty instead of having a dirty nappy. Again, no pressure, if he isn't too happy I'll leave it a bit longer. 

I have every confidence he'll get there in his own time, just as he's done with everything else.
