Potty training Day 1, morning

The toilet training has begun in earnest.

Today we watched Potty time with Bear.

We read toilet time propaganda books together such as My Big Boy Potty and Too Big for Diapers.

Isaac drank 1 juice box, 1 sippy cup full of water, and 2 sippy cups full of diluted juice, in addition to sips from the faucet.

He ditched the diapers for cloth training pants.

The results?

This one well hydrated kid had:

6 trips to the bathroom
5 of which were successful
2 accidents

6 jelly beans as a reward.  

All in all a pretty good start.  Around noon we took a time out for a nap.

You are one brave woman. I WILL NOT do potty training when I'm pregnant. Period. Doesn't matter if the child is ready. But how nice will it be to only have one child in diapers? :)

I'm highly motivated to only have 1 in diapers at a time. Still, I wish I had started months earlier...
