I hope I don’t jinx myself by this post, but Veronika is officially potty trained!
We started training (initially) about two months ago. She was making great progress, but eventually regressed, was crying, and wanted nothing to do with it. To me these were signs that she wasn’t ready.
I decided to give it a 2nd try on Monday. This time she did fabulous! She had several accidents on Monday, only two accidents on Tuesday, and NO accidents on Wednesday! By Thursday afternoon she was using the potty all on her own, and by Friday (today), she completely mastered the whole thing. She was SO proud of herself! She also stayed dry on our two trips to the playground and during naps the past couple of days.
So hopefully she won’t regress again and maybe in the near future we can stop buying her pull-ups. As per rewards, she was getting one Smartie for every time she used the potty, but she is now losing interest in Smarties, just like Natasha eventually stopped asking for stickers as rewards. I guess those wear off!
My baby girl is getting big.
