Don't worry, I won't go into too much detail.
This morning, I started potty training my son. He turned 3 last August and we have made some weak attempts prior to today.
His diaper was soaked, but he still went on the potty when I got him out of bed.
He did have a number 1 accident and a number 2 accident early on, but he has stayed dry and clean since. I have an app on my phone that sounds an alarm every 45 minutes and we can record his success.
We even had to make a trip to the city this afternoon, and I wasn't confident enough in his ability, so he wore a diaper, which he kept dry the entire 2 hours we were gone.
Hopefully this is the beginning of the end for diapers in this house!

Of course he had an accident just before the last alarm went. Oh well, it will happen eventually.

Potty training is so much fun. Sometimes you want to pull your hair out and other days you want to hide somewhere so you can laugh. Both of mine were clowns when it came to potty training so I had to learn not to laugh in front of them and to hold my temper. Thankfully, God gave me a lot of patience.

I'm sure he'll get the hang of it pretty soon

thanks. I hope this doesn't take long. We can't go to the early years center if he is having too many accidents. Hopefully by the end of the week we can attempt a trip out.
