I think that sounds like a great start! LO was already telling us when she had to go when we did it (27 mos) but we still had some ups and downs.

I just want to warn you that day 2 was a little harder for us than day 1 (although we didn't start day 1 until after nap due to scheduling) and then things improved the end of day 2 and day 3.

Good luck--how great would it be to only have one in diapers! Just stay really positive and encouraging!

@locavore_mama: we spent a lot of time watching elmo potty and even if you don't go that route, I really liked the concept of "listen to your body" so you know when to go. We used a lot of those talking points to reinforce it for LO.

I think that success rate is really good! Hope tomorrow goes better for you!

@locavore_mama: i think it really helps! we are not big on screen time but LO loves elmo and i think it normalizes it for them, and gives you something to do all day while waiting for LOs to pe!

My son was 30 months. Day one he figured out pee pretty much right away, and had maybe 1 accident. Poop took about 2 weeks. He wasn't having accidents, but we kept him in diapers for naps and nighttime, so he would wait for a diaper to poop.

LO sounds like she's doing pretty well! Day 1 was really frustrating because she held in her pee, and would only go once i put a diaper on her. Day 2 she had 1 accident , and day 3 she pooped in the toilet, but only because we had an idea as to when she would (right after breakfast). I'm really reluctant to do potty boot camp right now - i think i'll give her another week or so before i do it.

After day 1, she got the hang of it but still had 1 or 2 more pee accidents after boot camp. Within two weeks it was all good. We potty trained at 29 months.

I know we're in the minority, but potty training has been kind of a non-event for us. She pretty much had it down after the first day. We had 3-4 accidents that first morning, but probably less than 10 since. We've never needed a pull-up for naps and she wakes up dry in the mornings about half the time. I think she was just ready and capable of understanding. She just did it. It's been nice!

@locavore_mama: Sounds like your LO has done really well, too! I think having low expectations really goes a long way in having a good experience
