Potty training is going well, but...

It's still frustrating. I still feel like I have to watch her like a hawk. She's been to school in panties for two days and has only had one accident. She seems to be saving them for home. Most of her accidents now are poop accidents. She still doesn't tell us when she has to go, so we take her before we go anywhere, whenever we get back from anywhere and fairly frequently other times. I'm dreaming of the day when we can let down our guard, but I don't see that happening any time soon. I'm thrilled with the progress we've made so far, but it seems like it will be a while before she's 100% trained. It's hard not to get frustrated, but considering we're only going through one or two diapers a day now, it's a huge improvement.

It's been such a nightmare (especially the first few days) that I'm seriously considering trying to potty train DS (almost 18 mo) just to get it all over with.

Hang in there. Its the hardest thing I did with my son and he's a typical kid. I'm sure it takes more reinforcement for other kids. Congrats on the progress, even though its exhausting! Hope your son is one of those kids-not like mine- who is ready early!

It takes time...it seemed like forever when we were potty training my oldest, molly, with mild cp.
