I think I'll have underwear on him, but no pants. He's not the best at dressing/undressing himself anyway, but he does know where his laundry hamper is and how to clean up messes should he make one. I think after more research that I've done I'm going to leave nighttime PT until he's a bit older.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399720861396381975.post-75499591519701730402012-04-29T08:50:30.221-06:002012-04-29T08:50:30.221-06:00That is a REALLY good point, Katie...to reward imm...That is a REALLY good point, Katie...to reward immediately. I definitely will continue with potty treats, and you're right...he might not understand the train table long term goal thing. When we pack up the diapers, I think I'll get Daddy to remove the change table and we might just put up the train table sans trains so he does have that every day visual.<br /><br />Seeing it in writing, the gradual transition from daytime pee, poop, and nighttime PT makes a lot of sense. I think it takes a lot of pressure off and calling it an "evolution" is brilliant.<br /><br />Thanks as always for your truly helpful, and inspiring comment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399720861396381975.post-845638383209096112012-04-29T06:14:50.375-06:002012-04-29T06:14:50.375-06:00You have an awesome plan!

I agree with the previous comment. When I trained my 2 yr old last summer, I let him run around most mornings without pants. He would then just go use the little potty I set up in the room whenever he wanted to. It worked out really really well! Within a week, he was trained (although he's still in pull-ups at night, I'm tackling that this summer!)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05544815252264747503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399720861396381975.post-19350562135979999172012-04-28T20:13:02.646-06:002012-04-28T20:13:02.646-06:00Thus far in my PT experience, limited as it is, I&...Thus far in my PT experience, limited as it is, I'm believer in presenting it, talking about it & letting them lead the way. I think if you force the issue its harder. Check back with me in a month & see how I feel though!<br /><br />The thing I am learning with Livi is that PT is too small of a term. There is daytime PT. Pee PT. Poop PT. Night PT. And I don't think that is something you can do all in one swoop. She has been daytime pee PT since Jan. We are working on Poop PT still. And she is evolving to be Night PT over time. I think it takes a while for them to realize the feeling & learn to hold it that long at night. We have done nothing to night PT per say, its just evolving for her over time. <br /><br />I also think rewards need to be instant. Their little brains can't comprehend the long term bigger goal. We have been telling Livi for weeks if she learns to poop on the potty she can have this thing she wants. And she repeats that all the time. But I'm figuring out I think it confuses her every time she DOES go, why she doesn't get it right away. I am mid changing our system for that trying to decide what to do. <br /><br />And commando is the way to go with boys I hear. Skip the undies all together until they are getting the hang of it a little. <br /><br />Good Luck!!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07382510534747063265noreply@blogger.com
