Potty Talk
~ by Charlotte

Matthew, while in bathroom, at potty time …
Matthew: (yelling) Mommy!
Me: Are you done?
Matthew: It’s not working.
Me: What’s the matter?
Matthew: It’s stuck.
Me: You got to push. You got to push really hard.
Matthew: It’s not working.
Me: Maybe later. All done now?
Matthew: No! Poopoo some more.
Moments later, repeat from start 5 times until he gives up. Sigh, if only I can poop for him.
Matthew has been potty trained. A few accidents here and there, but for #2, there has been no major setbacks. He is independent, would sit in the big potty and does his business without messes. He still needs assistance cleaning up and lot of reminders with washing and all, but he is there. #1 is another story. When he is busy, in a hurry or too excited, he thinks he can hold it, but he can not. So there’s lots of getting wet on his pants.

Haha, sounds like he’s doing great though! I love it when kids do that. My daughter asks me to bring water to her sometimes while she’s on the potty so that she can go poo poo better. LOL, kids are great!
