I'm pregnant for the first time and this is a whole new world for me, but your blog is making it hi-larious and informative. I know this is an old post but I had to comment.

I borrowed the Elmo video from the library but it was scratched. :( I totally want to buy Everyone Poops. lol.<br /><br />So I did elimination communication with my son and we started when he was two weeks old, but when he was 3 months old he could sit on the Little Potty with assistance, and by 7 months he could sit on it unassisted. It's such a great potty. I like Baby Bjorn's bigger potty chair, too. And their toilet insert is the best--I wouldn't bother with any other brand. Although my son has just decided that he doesn't need it anymore (he's a small barely two-year-old) because he wants to hold himself up on the toilet. Oh, well, whatever works.Lisa Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00110779167509779880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-86466591725202146242010-06-02T00:57:02.367-07:002010-06-02T00:57:02.367-07:00There's nothing funnier than potty training.

In the first week or so of potty training, I would sing the song that Elmo's daddy sings - and she loved it!

I stored that seat between kid #1 and kid #2 and, even though I scrubbed and wiped every inch, it had nasty pee in it when I took it out...oh, that's hard to admit. <br /><br />I love the movie Potty Power (I used it for Things I Love Thursday a few weeks ago). It has brain washing effects! <br /><br />Visiting from TILTParenting in blue jeanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418032209670174869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-54536451138793968902010-05-27T07:53:58.109-07:002010-05-27T07:53:58.109-07:00Great ideas!!

Boy potty training does have that pee guard issue, although boys have the advantage that they don't pee all over themselves every time they go #1 (I personally don't feel the need to wipe him at all after pee). <br /><br />Teaching Money to Kids, I'm pretty sure I started the over-sharing by talking about potty training in detail at all. One problem with the potty seat (on top of the toilet) is definitely how hard it is to stand on the stool, pull down the pants, turn around and sit down while keeping pants around the ankles. And then stand up again. Kind of why I don't push it. I am so much happier cleaning the little potty than the poopy diapers (I use cloth), that cleaning the little potty doesn't phase me one iota yet. I plan to teach him to stand to pee when he's tall enough to do so without a stool -- although my sister says her boys have decided on their own when to start (with some not-so-fun cleaning tasks as a result).Betsy Escandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13598482569526345086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-17872191902675286952010-05-26T21:32:22.726-07:002010-05-26T21:32:22.726-07:00Hey, entertaining and informative!

It seems that girl potty training does not have as many challenges as boy potty training. We actually bought a regular toilet seat that has a built in seat for the kids. I love it for Sophie, but after reading this, I'm thinking it might not be as great for Landon (no guard). Glad I get to learn from you. I'm going to start making note of Landon's poops so I can get him on the potty!Nisha https://www.blogger.com/profile/14177523450388267730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-56259203266942113892010-05-26T20:58:50.527-07:002010-05-26T20:58:50.527-07:00Unfortunately we are struggling with the "I h...Unfortunately we are struggling with the "I have to take my clothes completely off, becasue I am so short it tis the only way to get on the potty and then I can't really get them back on by myself" problem.
