Poop!


Okay, so potty training sucks! My son has finally realized that it's uncomfortable to sit in your own waste for long periods of time (good thing). Unfortunately he has also figured out how to take his pants and diapers off to try and correct the problem on his own (bad thing...lots of messes...we'll leave it at that). The first few times he did this, I was like, "Hey! If he can do that, he can go potty on his own! Hooray!" ...silly me. Aparently he still doesn't realize he needs to go until it's too late. So, he runs to the bathroom screaming "Poop! Pee!", whips off his pants and diaper which results in flinging ickiness all over the bathroom, and proceeds to sit on the toilet looking at books for the next 10 minutes with no "results" if you will. So, I guess we're making progress, but it's still so frustrating. Everything I look up online or in magazines about potty-training says a different thing from the next. It's irritating! Also, I feel like we're experiencing a lot of "two steps forward, one step back." He'll be so excited about going potty one day, and the next he will literally pitch a fit at the mere mention of going potty. Weirdo.
