Potty Trained!

This post has a little TMI. Just fyi. 


I think it is safe to say that my little guy is fully potty trained! He has not had an accident in a couple weeks. It is such a relief to have this over with! Hopefully he doesn't stop being potty trained when we go to Utah this weekend. (he was potty trained before christmas and when we went to Utah he stopped) BUT I wouldn't consider him fully potty trained then like I do now.


We used the naked approach and it worked well. We had a potty in the family room. He quickly picked up peeing but only when he was naked. If he had under ware or a diaper on then he would pee in it. It took about a week to get him to realize he had to go when he had clothes on. I stayed home all week and I felt anti social but it helped.


Pooping on the other hand was a nightmare. He usually would go in the morning or nap time when he had a diaper. He never went in his under ware but after we gave up naps this was a problem. He started pooping in his pants and when Bryson was home with the kids while I worked he made him take a shower if he pooped his pants. Akoy is TERRIFIED of the shower. I have no idea why. If he hears the neighbors shower while he is in the tub he jumps out so fast. This plan helped with the pooping all to well. He stopped going. After some bleeding and lots of gummy bears for bribery he got the concept. Once he figured out how to listen to his body (thanks potty time!) he got the concept and now he loves going poop. ha. Some days he would get 30 little gummy bears (5 each poop, 1 for pee).


Akoy stays try most nights unless we give him too much juice. It's our trade off to get him to go to bed, but I'm not to worried about that.


We got Akoy a new Thomas Train set for being potty trained. He loves it. I told him the delivery man was down the hall with a surprise. He was going crazy!! 

Go Akoy! :)
