Potty Training Day 3

This is our 3rd full day of using the potty. It took us a long time to get here, but things are going great! Today was a big day Kelsie went poop on the potty for the first time!! That is a HUGE milestone in the process of potty training, so we are super excited!! She also has not had any accidents and she woke up dry from her nap. She has even told us when she needed to go once today. The other times were based on the timer. It looks like we are well on our way. I am praying that this great progress continues!

Our next goals are to get her to use the potty out in public and to tell us consistently when she needs to go. We are not trying to rush that though, because from what I have heard that can take a while. For now the timer is working great and Kelsie doesn't seem to mind.

Update -- Tonight we had our first trip out in public in big girl panties. Kelsie didn't want to put on a pull up and we only planned to be out for about an hour, so I didn't fight her request. We wound up being out for an hour and a half and she just held it until we got home which happened to be bedtime. She apparently needed to go, because she asked to go potty before her medicine or brushing teeth. Yippee we are so thrilled!
