Potty Training Boys

Potty training - day 3. Just a quick note to give you an update as to the success of our potty training. Last night, my son was able to hold his pee all night long! We were so proud of him. This morning we negotiated a bit before he was ready to get on the "cold" potty, but he did it and later in the day, he told me that he wanted to show me something..eek?? and low and behold, he had done his stinky in the potty!!! we made a big deal out of it and it really was a big deal to us! I can't believe how far he has come in just these three days. So, in a nutshell we went to the preschool today and he will hopefully start there next Monday. We still have some reinforcement to go through (he only goes for me now and he will have to learn to listen to the teachers etc...). I am sure it will help to see the other kids going to the potty, but again I wanted to thank you for your experience & for the great plan you are sharing with other moms like me!

Best Regards,

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
On the first day, I was so tempted to give up, but on the second day, my son, Joey started to tell me when he needed to go potty. Only 7 "accidents" the first day, 2 the second, 3 on the third and so far on the 4th, none. He has also been dry for the last two nights. The first night was rough with 3 changes of underwear, but he is doing GREAT!! We owe it all to your potty training advice

I went to the store yesterday, and bought all the items you suggested, and we actually started potty training yesterday afternoon, so we could have our 1st productive night, it worked, my son was dry this morning, and I haven't changed a diaper since yesterday, I hope I am not speaking too soon, but so far so good!!!!!

Thanks,

My wife and I waited until I had some time off for us to try your method. We have 2 1/2 yr old twins, Boy and Girl. So it really took both of us to handle this. But I'm happy to say that it worked ! We started a week ago today, and by Tuesday, my Son was asking to go potty. It took until Thursday for my daughter to "click" as to what was going on. I'm also happy to say that we've had to change only 1 set of wet sheets since then and that was during the first night of potty training for my daughter. We've had none since ! We've also noticed that it seemed to help having them wear pants during this. It made for more laundry, but there was more clothes to be wet and they were able to feel it better.

Thank you very much

Lora,
I just had to write and thank you! Your method worked like a charm. My son is two and a half and showed absolutely no interest in using the potty until I tried your method. My mom thought I was crazy and that it would never work, but I'm glad to say we proved her wrong in only 3 days! You are brilliant!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

I would just like to say thank you so much for your guide. My son is 3 1/2 and I didn't think he would be potty trained until he was 15. I had tried different things and nothing ever worked. I had put him in Pull ups. I purchased your guide on Monday and I went and bought the items you had mentioned in there. On Tuesday I started training him ( I really thought I was going to go insane) I just kept on reading over and over again about what you mentioned and I never gave up.

On Wednesday morning when he woke up I checked him and he was dry. I couldn't believe it. He had just a few accidents but he would start to feel like going and run to the bathroom and finish up. By Wednesday night he went all by himself. I really couldn't believe that one. Today is Thursday and he was dry again this morning and he has been going to the bathroom all by himself today. I am so shocked that he really is already trained by the 3rd day.

I have to admit when I was first reading your book I was feeling like yeah right this is never going to work. Well I was wrong. The only regret I have is not purchasing this a year ago. Sorry so long but I am so thankful and excited after reading and it working and just thinking of the money it is going to save me now.

Thank you again.
