Hm....that's a good question to be pondered in our home right now. We have a two year old, who for the FIRST time pottied in the toilet over our New Year's vacation!!! WooHoo!! I'd say, if it had happened more than once, but what the heck, once is better than none at all. Kateli saved the first poop in the toilet for abuela to witness--yep, neither mommy or daddy were there to cheer her on, but she got tons of cheering from her loving abuela who was ecstatic (I know, I know--the things that make us excited for our kids at the tender age of 2! ). Anyway, it happened Dec 30th. Kateli went up with abuela for her bath and night-time. She said "Kateli poopoo" and abuela obliged, as we often do at home, by sitting her on the toilet and waiting to see if she will actually go...this time?? SUCCESS!! She sat there, and a couple of minutes later.... "plop" ...Ah, music to the ears!! My mom said Kateli heard the "plop" and immediately looked up at her with a grin but a surprise look on her face as if wondering "what was that?" My mom the cheerleader did a great job in encouraging her!!
Kateli has resorted to pooping in her diaper again, but we still run to the potty when she says "Kateli poopoo"....we'll see!!!
