Potty Training Woes

September 19, 2016

Potty training Hamp has been a huge struggle. He has good days and bad days, but he is still far from being completely potty trained. With our third baby coming in 7 (or less) weeks, I am feeling a lot of pressure to get him potty trained so that we don’t have three in diapers. He will be 3 in late October, so I feel like we should really be farther along than we are and it has been extremely frustrating for both of us.

Potty Training Woes

Some days he will potty all throughout the day in his potty, but other days he refuses to go at all. We have tried standing, sitting, potty seat, no potty seat, bribing with candy, etc. Nothing seems to be getting through to him. One thing we have not done is let him go naked. A lot of people have told me to do this, but because we are currently living at my parent’s house, I feel really bad doing that. We may be picking a day very soon to go outside and play naked so that he can become more aware of his bodily functions.

Pull Ups and Potty Training

One thing that has helped both of us is Huggies® Pull-Ups®, and GoodNites®! They have been so wonderful on his good days because they are easy to pull up and down instead of fooling with a diaper. They have been awesome on our bad days as well because they protect our home from messes and I don’t have to wash bed sheets all day. Hallelujah! I need all the help I can get, so I am very thankful for these and for Huggies® wipes when we have what I like to call “in-between messes”. Meaning, between changes. It happens. Especially with little boys. We grabbed all of these products at our new Walmart Neighborhood Market that just opened a few months ago. I love to grocery shop here for certain things and it is really easy and convenient to pick up our necessities!

The funny thing is, Sophie has started telling us before she poops every single time. I feel like she may be easier to potty train right now than Hamp has been. We are seriously debating trying to let her go ahead and potty train as well. Is 16 months too early for that? Even though I’m about to be a mom of three, I still feel like a new mom and this is all so new to me that I feel completely clueless sometimes.

    My 3 year old just got potty trained this summer! (He turned 3 in April!!) He’s my 2nd child and was much more stubborn than my daughter. It is so true what everyone always says, every child is different and if you push them they will push away! Just keep trying and try to make it fun! Stickers, books, there are even apps you can use now with potty training! Good luck! I did use a treat reward system but not everyone agrees with that. It worked for us 🙂

    I am in the same boat too! Starting to potty train but he is still not completely potty trained.

    Ugh…. potty training. I would rather deal with the sleepless nights of having a newborn than go through potty training again. We ended up just going with the flow for our oldest, and it worked the best.

    You know, my daughter wasn’t too bad, but I’ve heard boys are much harder to potty train. I’ve hit the point in my parenting where I’m not even going to push it with my son. He just turned 2, and when he starts acting interested, I’ll take the cue. Otherwise, I’ll avoid it as long as I can–ha!

    I am also going through some woes of my own with child number 3. You would think I would have it down by now?! Going with the flow worked with number 2, so I guess we will do that again.
