The pull ups are diapers I don't care what the comericals say Lol. I tell people not to use them. Savannah was harder to train than Dalton, I don't know if it was because I started early or not, I cannot remember how old she was I think around 2 years. I don't remember how Dalton was either, but seemed easier for him.<br />Good advice you have put out there.Ginny Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09292845735281166911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867031730743967442.post-79284260912483079452010-04-01T05:44:25.183-05:002010-04-01T05:44:25.183-05:00Great post Camille.

I am sure there are many who will appreciate it. <br /><br />We used to send the bigger kids in to celebrate with a song :)<br /><br />"pee pee in the pot - tee" the last part "tee" is with hands in the air. They sounded so cute and all was very light and fun. <br /><br />One word of caution. One of our daughters was 8 when she was finally dry at night. Her days were fine, but we couldn't get the night to be dry at all. My husand and I each had brothers who couldn't hold it all night. IT was hard for everyone, but man did we have a HUGE party when she was dry for 2 weeks straight at night. She is now 15 and still remembers the party!! Ha! <br /><br />Some bladders just don't grow at the proper pace. She still needs to go more than the others do! Try not to be too harsh if you know they have no control. Tempers can rise, that is for sure!<br /><br />XOChristian gal issueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15193510531868261425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867031730743967442.post-14994700580702800572010-03-31T14:01:25.056-05:002010-03-31T14:01:25.056-05:00camille, i think you pretty much covered it!

(i.e. "Knox, do you need to go potty?" "NO!" ...when it's obvious he needs to go.) let's just say that we're trying to be less concerned about the poop in his pants and more concerned about the poop in his heart! :)The Westmorelandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16444324388685222970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867031730743967442.post-22183822212488782322010-03-30T10:14:01.197-05:002010-03-30T10:14:01.197-05:00Katie was trained at 18 months.

The only thing I can think to add is that when they are ready, they learn to go off and hide when they poop. :-DJennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15167334869167452715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867031730743967442.post-76202699876573765242010-03-30T09:27:57.447-05:002010-03-30T09:27:57.447-05:00Mucho thanks!
