Potty training again

Once again it is time to get another of our children out of nappies and using a potty.

For a little while now he has been really annoyed about wearing his nappy with the other day even seeing him getting the potty out himself and to sit on whilst still having his nappy on.

After he did this we thought "OK time to start training him" as he seems ready.

Yesterday was the first real day we started and had him running around in just his underwear all day. According to the neighbours I am a little too old to be doing this myself.

Having trained our oldest son (now 3) last summer, I had forgotten how vigilant you must be when you have a fully loaded toddler running around then house with no nappy on. All I can say is thankfully we now have floorboards that can be easily wiped clean rather than the carpet that once adorned our floors.

It's funny how sometimes they are almost ashamed to wet their pants and will go off to hide in some dark corner to do their business. Other times they are almost proud of the fact that they have just wizzed on the floor. Yesterday saw the contrasts of cleaning up wee from the furthest corners of the house to wiping off my wife's leg after an episode that saw him standing next to her with no nappy on. Funnily enough she didn't think it was as amusing as I did.

On asking your child if they need to use the potty, I would give the same advice to other parents as I give to my HelpDesk clients regarding saving documents on the network.

Do it early, do it often.

Failure to do this in either case will cause a lot of tiresome work in the event of a disaster.
