Fyi: operation potty training started on Monday (D wasnt ready when we tried months ago) and it's been more frustrating than newborn days. I want to cry.
Big hugs your way! Just don't rush it or pressure yourself. He WILL be potty trained one day. Boys take longer to learn then girls, and many boys aren't ready until ages 3-4. Keep trying but don't get discouraged.
And when I am potty training Jensen please send this back to me LOL!
Potty training is horribly frustrating. I can tell you a couple things: a) pull-ups don't work. You'll have a couple days of hey! he's getting it! and then he'll realize he can pee in the thing and then it will be 2 months of having to change a child in a very un-absorbant, difficult-to-change diaper. and b) when you finally decide to forgo the pull-ups, do it on a weekend, don't bother with any clothes and Saturday will be encouraging but expect to go through 14 pairs of undies in one Sunday.
Right there with you girl! I sometimes just want to put her back in diapers and forget the whole potty training thing. It consumes my whole life. We can't even go out in public right now because I'm potty training. Aubree also fights every morning about the potty. I know she is ready to potty train, she has shown all the signs, so I think it's more of an independent issue as to why she fights me to sit on the potty. I want to cry right with you!! Whoever said the infant stage was the hardest is a LIAR haha

Good luck! No one wears diapers to college!
Amy-I promise to remind you of this!
Jessica-OMG it's AWFUL. I DREAD absolutely LOATHE the battle that is ahead every day, but I keep on going because that's what moms do, right?
April-We skipped right over pull ups and have been practically naked for four full days now. My carpet will have to be cleaned at the end of this.
