Emmy still has accidents, especially when tired or right after leaving the pool. Just don't give up. They'll get it eventually, but also remember that at 2 accidents happen.

He used to go on the toilet and sit, but now we've moved backward where he is literally afraid to sit on the toilet. Ugh.

We tried and pushed A when he was around 2.5 and he would go here and there but nothing really consistent. The more we pushed the more he reverted so we just backed off. Everyone told us when he's ready he will go. Well sure enough, he woke up one morning, a week after his 3rd birthday, and refused to the leave the house in a pull up. He hasn't ever looked back. My little nugget started going on the potty around 18 months because he wanted to be like A and basically potty trained himself. No prizes, no bribing, nothing. We still put him in a diaper at night so maybe I'll need some pointers with him when we make the full transition.

We have been at it for a few weeks actually..he got sick about five days into it so naturally completely regressed and we had to start over basically. He is pretty much trained on #1 throughout the day and in diapers at night, and won't even TRY #2. I am trying to find the perfect prize/bribe to motivate him but so far nothing is working. My advice is just keep at it..we still consistently ask Jackson if he has to go or make him sit on the potty, and he isn't great at asking to go. BUT he will do a dance and make it obvious he needs to and is holding it. Just have lots of wine on hand ;-)Stang&Cohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03430875275411273452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-9029801843314195482017-06-26T20:03:06.394-07:002017-06-26T20:03:06.394-07:00Oh my!

After the 6th pair of underwear, I gave up and went back to pull ups. I think that was at 11ish. 😳 We'll get it! Right? Haha. I can't even imagine trying to do it with two!

We did the 3 Day training method (no bottoms first day, bottoms second with one 15-30 min walk, full clothes and 30-60 min walk) and bring the travel potty EVERYWHERE. Best of luck!

Just keep at it and they will get it. Even still we put a pull up on Avery for bed every night just in case, but she hasn't peed in it for months so we can probably stop ha. It's so draining though, I feel for you guys!! I'm glad you were able to get out Sunday because it really is so damn boring sitting home and asking your kids if they have to go to the bathroom 24/7!

He screams when he is brought to the potty. I've heard good things about letting them go bare butt though, or putting them in plain undies for 3 days at home, so I think I might do that.
