Hi guys - with you on the potty training front! How old are yours at the moment? DS is 2.7 and is nearly there. Nursery have been key I think, because other older kids are training at the same time.
Had a small celebration today when we were at a friends house this morning and he announced he wanted the loo - fortunately (and for a change) I'd actually remembered to take the loo seat thingy and he did a poo on the loo instead of his pants! Hurrah! Touch wood - there's been no accidents today!
He rarely has a wee accident these days but the poos are taking a bit more concentration!
He's got a potty in front of the tv which I think is very helpful!
He wears pull ups for naptime (also known (by me) as 'wrestle time' - I'm so not ready for him to stop, and neither is he, but he thinks he is - hence the physical wrestle until he concedes !!!). He still wears them at bedtime too and if we're doing a long car journey. Although, he rarely has wet pull ups for naps or driving. He's also quite good at spotting up coming service stations it seems, as he's been announcing he wants a wee about a mile before each service station and has been able to hold on each time!
Goodness, sorry about the mega potty post!
In celebration of all the above, I've started collecting a some packs of newborn nappies on the weekly shop too. Spreading the cost and all that.
Have not been feeling great the past 24 hours or so, got a bit of a dicky tummy and every now and again, get really painful cramps and have to rush off to the loo .
Am feeling a little guilty at the amount I don't spend on DS at birthday's / Christmas! He gets so much stuff from all his rellies though, I'd need a barn to store it all in if I mucked in too! He didn't get anything from us for his first christmas and only a couple of items for his birthdays. The house is bursting with his toys though!
He seems to have developed the skill of seeing things he wants and telling me we're going shopping for them! He's 2.5 FGS!
Oh well.
On the room decorating front, I wasn't planning on doing wall papering etc, just accessorising with bedding, a couple of pictures, waste paper bin, that sort of thing so that when if his allegiance changes, it won't be a disaster.
He (and George pig) quite like dinosaurs too, so I did wonder about some dinosaur stuff.
He's pressed up against me in an attempt to stop me typing cuddling me at the moment and i've just had to ask him to stop playing with my boob - what's that all about? He seems to have a new fascination and I haven't told him about breastfeeding yet. He's becoming increasingly adamant that I'm having a baby girl - beginning to wonder if perhaps we should try and find out the sex at the next scan (37 weeks) so that we can prepare him if it is a boy.
Sorry - can you tell I've been on my own most of the day with only DS for company? I guess you're probably all off doing tea now - and I ought to get on with that too!
