3 Day Potty Train

After much consideration, I decided to use the 3-day potty training method for Brooke. We started talking to Brooke several weeks ahead of time about how exciting it will be to wear big girl panties and use the potty. I ordered a special little travel potty for her to learn on. We did the 3-day method over Labor Day weekend. Keith drove Annabel up to his parents house in Dallas so I would have dedicated time with Brooke. When she woke up on that Saturday morning we threw her diapers in the trash and had a potty party. I got her a special cupcake to celebrate learning to use the potty. I also put a huge chart on the door where she put stickers on each time she went pee/poo on her big girl potty. On Saturday morning she peed through 7 pairs of panties before going pee on the potty. She was so proud of herself when she finally got it. She did so well on Sunday and monday; only 1 or two accidents. She had a little bit of difficulty trying to poop on the potty. She had some success during the weekend, but we are still working to master it. I was so proud that she could even keep her panties dry during naptime and overnight. I would definitely recommend the 3-day potty train method to anyone. Yay for only 1 kid in diapers.
