'They' say that children toilet train in their own time, that there is part of their brain that needs to engage to recognise the signs of needing to go... some do this early... some a little later. So I got to the calm stage a couple of weeks ago when I realised that just because 'every other' child started toilet training when they were 2 didn't mean that mine needed to... (she's now 2 1/2) - it's taken 6 months to get to that realisation!
But 3 days ago, everything changed... Noosh has been in knickers/or pulls ups every day and she ALWAYS asks to go to the toilet. Miss independent will frequently be playing and then run off to the toilet calling over her shoulder 'Mummy going poos!'. This is sweet music to my ears! Something has clicked with her. I can nearly see the nappy free years ahead!!
My husband and I have a deal. He deals with vomit... I deal with nappies. I figure, short term pain for long term gain. I have a lot of nappies to deal with in the first 2 years of life... but he gets 18 years worth of vomit. I figure it probably evens out.
Anyway, I am so proud of my Noosh and best part... I did nothing... seriously!! All the stress about how to do it and I think to myself.... she did it herself!
