Toilet Training

My mum started to toilet train Cherylin last Thu (23 Aug). A bit late to start, I know. Strangely, we have never been concerned that she’s still wearing diaper while kids of her age were already diaper-free long ago. Probably we were too bo chap and find it more convenient for her to wear diaper especially when we are outside.

As expected, accidents happened during the initial stage of toilet training; she wetted the bed, chair, etc. Over the weekend, YC and I did not really train her cos we were out of the house most of the time. Toilet training continued for Cherylin this week. Seems to progress quite well. She’ll tell wai po when she wants to pee. And she even took her nap without wearing diaper. Her first car ride without diaper was ok too.

However, when it comes to poo, Cherylin simply refuse to do it on potty/toilet bowl. She’ll find a spot and squat down with her pants on to do her business. I guess we’ll have to go slow with her, one thing at a time. I believe she’ll start to learn when she’s ready. Just like training her to go pee in the toilet (oops, but she’s not doing so on toilet bowl, it’s in the bathe room instead :P)
