Potty Learning
It is called “Potty Training” by many, but I prefer the term “Potty Learning”. It is a learning curve for both parents and child. The parents need to learn the cues that the child is giving. Parents are also the ones responsible for making sure to keep a potty schedule. The child is merely a spectator in this whole situation. They are just getting used to seeing a potty and peeing on a potty. Pretty easy, right?
Well, Ethan started using the “real” potty when he was about 9 months old and he did fantastic! He would consistently use it correctly and I would be very happy that it reduced the amount of diaper changes.
However, I blame the recent happenings on Garrett (of course… he is a man and we should always blame things on the man). Ever since Garrett has been off work for the summer, the potty learning has ceased. Kaput. Gone. Zilch. Nada.
I am determined to get this up and running again once Garrett returns to work in September. I am determined that Ethan will be potty learning again!
Wish us luck!
