@ALV91711: What time is his bed time? Would pushing it back help?
@Adira: He isn't drinking out of an open cup already? We will do sippy at home mostly, but she does great with open cups. Even if they potty train in this room, I am sure they aren't going to pressure him to do it. At first it will just getting his used to the potty. He will do fine with the room change. And I am sure the teacher is great too. Otherwise they wouldn't have her working there. Just make sure you remind her every day for awhile about this allergy.

R's teacher said when I picked her up yesterday that she was asking to go potty all day. I don't think she ever went and she didn't for me last night. But she leaked out of her diaper last night, I wonder if she was holding it all day. Her teacher said she brought her a diaper in the morning and said I popped, change please. Haha!

@Adira: He might not move up to toddler 3 unless they are potty trained. I know the 3 boys in R's class aren't anywhere near ready to train. Only one girl is having any sort of luck. But her Mom is due in June so I would bet money she will regress. Yeah we do milk in a sippy still. She likes to carry her cups around the house. So we usually do open cup with meals and that is all. Other then when she steals our drinks.
I don't know how ready she is but I am not ready. I am going to miss her cute bubble butt!

@QueensBee: oh we totally bribe with sugar. How do you think we finally got her to stop pulling her pig tails/ponytails out?
Wait, he is moving rooms and centers/buildings?

@QueensBee: gotcha!
Well we give the sugar right before dinner when she gets home from school. Only lately she doesn't even ask for her cookie. But I might start the cookie to see if it will help her sleep later and stay in her bed!

@Smurfette: His bedtime is 7pm. Usually he can hardly make it to 7 because he is so tired from his long days. Tonight I'm going to start trying 7:30 for a few nights and see if that changes anything. It does look like his 2nd molars are starting to come in, so that doesn't help.

@Adira: We only do open cups at meals or snacks because he is sitting strapped in. During the day it is straw or sippy cups.

@QueensBee: Hopefully the sticker chart helps him stay in bed. Anything for more sleep. Animal crackers in the morning isn't the worst thing. I can't believe how soon he is moving up rooms. Where are our babies going?

@Adira: it is so gross! I hate it every time.

So this morning I was getting her dressed and she said she had to pee. I told her to go and I didn't follow her cause I figured she would just sit on it and not pee like earlier this morning. A minute later she comes runny in her room and says I did it. I go look and she pooped!!! I can't believe it. She keeps yelling I pooped in the potty. Her teacher told me yesterday that she thinks she will be the first in her class trained. I don't know I am ready for this! We are going to buy more pull ups and try them at home.

@Smurfette: Awesome!! She is going to be potty trained in not time!

@Smurfette: Wow, wow she is really ready! I hope you guys have an easy time with it... and can teach us all your potty tips and tricks!

And I feel lucky that we've managed to avoid tub poop for this long. I didn't know it was a thing!

@ALV91711: how did sleep go with the new bedtime?

We've been skipping most naps on the weekends (he maybe gets a 30 minute car nap), and he's been sleeping through the night a lot better. We currently have four stickers on his chart. I'm sad to lose the midday nap but enjoying the long stretches of sleep.

@QueensBee: @Smurfette: Sleep has been better the last two mornings. I hope it stays that way, I can't do another week of being up by 4:30.

@QueensBee: Good that he is getting stickers on his chart. Losing the afternoon nap scares me but in a way I think it will make weekends easier.

@Smurfette: That would be so nice if she learned at daycare. By the sounds of it potty training won't be too hard for her, it sounds like she gets it.

@ALV91711: E's was 7pm until she was about 18/19/20 months and we had to bump it back to 7;30 in order for her to sleep until 6:30/6:45. A few of my friends had to bump bedtime by about 30 min, too, at that age!

@Adira: that's great!
@ALV91711: poor guy! Hope he got some good sleep and is feeling better!

Y'all I am so sick of the poopy diapers in the AM. She soaked through a size 6 diaper last night. Guessing cause of the poop. We already cut her liquids in half. She isn't eating the same things at night, but every morning, poop. I think she is doing it over night too.

@Adira: I don't think so. It was tight. I wonder if she is holding it during the day cause she doesn't like the feeling of a wet diaper. She only asked day care to go to potty once all day and she didn't go. She didn't go for me last night either, but she had an epic meltdown that lasted for 20 mins.

@Adira: That's great news! She sounds awesome! What a relief for you...

@ALV91711: Awe, I hope he's feeling better. What time did he wake up? Pete has trouble falling asleep at 8:30pm if he takes a nap at daycare. He is definitely running on less sleep these days.

@Smurfette: Ugh, I hate waking to the soaked diaper. Does she get a rash from having poop in there overnight? I have no idea what you could do to this fix this problem but I can offer sympathy. That sounds terrible!

Double ear infection. Last night was rough, high fever, not sleeping well. We slept in the spare room. He woke up a lot but did sleep until 8am which is unheard of. Short nap today, so I'm hoping for a good nights sleep tonight. My only concern is he hasn't eaten much today but he has been drinking lots which is good.

@Smurfette: She probably is holding it. Can they put her on the potty more often at daycare and get her to try?
