I have been struggling for a while now to get Cameron to toilet train. I have tried everything can think of. I have read countless numbers of books and articles and tried every piece of advice I have been given but nothing worked and with another child on the way I was dreading the idea of having 3 kids in diapers.
Then one morning when Aly was about 3 weeks old Cameron got out of bed and announced to me that he wasn’t wearing diapers any more, that they are for the baby. I told him he couldn’t have underwear if he was going to pee in them and he said he wouldn’t. That day he got till around 5pm and then had an accident. A good start for his first day. Over the next few weeks we had some good days and some bad ones and some really bad ones. Finally on one really bad day I got mad and put a diaper back on him. I was so tired I just couldn’t deal with the mess anymore. He cried and was upset and yelled that he wasn’t a baby and didn’t need diapers. I told him he had to show me by keeping his diaper dry and if he could do the then I would give him his underwear back. That was about 2 weeks ago and I am proud to announce that he has only had one accident in that entire time and stays dry even at night.
Cameron is now toilet trained!
Yay!!!
