Baby Steps Through Motherhood

It was amazing!!! I tried one time and she threw a fit everytime she had to go to the toilet so I decided to wait another month. One afternoon I thought, her diaper is always dry I should put underwear on her. We did and she hasn’t gone back. It is bizarre. I guess I just had to wait until she was ready. She has that personality. Everything is “I’ll do it myself” with her…well that is most of the time. Other times she is whiny and helpless but you get what I am saying. When she wants to be she wants to make the calls.

At the beginning of December she started wearing underwear. A few weeks later she is wearing underwear even over night. We created a little reward system where she would get 1 little marshmellow when she peed and 1 when she pooped. She loved getting them so would go sometimes just to get 2 marshmellows. Ha. Now, she doesn’t get anything and she is doing so good.

She loved it when Grandma came to babysit because she got 2 BIG marshmellows with her and kept asking for over a week for BIG marshmellows with me. Mean mom only gave her the little ones though.
