Goodbye Diapers

Good news everyone. I thought potty training my baby would be hard, but it was not at all.

My daughter will be 3 years old next month. She is potty trained now; and there is no need to use a diaper anymore. Last week, I started my daughter on wearing her underpants without a diaper, when she goes to sleep. So far, she hasn’t wet the bed. My secret is that I woke her up in the middle of the night and at 5 o’clock in the morning. The first two nights, she cried when I asked her to go pee; but the next morning, she was doing well. Last night, I was surprised because I didn’t have to ask her to go pee; but suddenly, she got up from the bed and went to pee. Wow, that is awesome for her at that age to do like that.

Both hubby and I are very happy watching our daughter grow up and learn new things.

Hi Raq! Abi nako na potty trained na jud si Maria completely kay ga mention man ka about ana katong December paman siguro to or January. Sukad pag mention nimo ato, na encourage jud ko nimo nga i potty train pod si Miriam ug sukad ato completely potty trained napod sya. Bisag magabie wala na nako gipasuot ug pull ups or diaper then dili rapod baya sya mangihi sa bed niya. Mohulat gud intawon sya mabuntag usa mangihi. Nindot na kaau pod ni sya karon kay dili nako mag assist niya sa bathroom kay sya sya nalang. Sa una ako paman sya i assist kay taas man ang toilet bowl namo ug medyo maglisod sya ug patong didto pero karon, sya nalang, ako ra sya gi train unsaon niya nga makapatong sa toilet bowl with her potty seat. Kung moingon na gani sya nga, "potty" moingon ra ko nga, "turn on the lights in the bathroom" ug mao na daun, siya siya nalang. Kapoy baya mag sigeg assist usahay hehehehe...makaguol baya hunahunaon usahay nga dili na sila baby sa heheheh...Dali ra man kaau sila makakat on. O sige adto nako kay maghimo pako sa assignment nako. Take care always. God bless you!

the reasons i'm keeping only one blog its because di ko makamanage sa daghan. di gani kaayo nako ma update ang isa how much more and daghan... i mean, i am not that vocal in my life... so i think one is enough para naman ma focused ra ko diri sa usa...

caryn said...

wow congrats to you! is it really hard then? i don't have any yet but my friend also had no problems with her 2 1/2 -year old. and she bought all these fancy stuff for potty-training, but wasn't able to use them because her daughter just did as was explained to her. hehehe. oh well, at least the results were satisfactory.

freeze said...

i just had a chat with my girl friend... same situation as yours but her pedia disagreed saying "you're potty training yourself not your kid for waking her up in the middle of the night"

i still prefer the kids to be out from diapers the earliest time possible :D kudos!

emzkie said...

thats so cool sis.. buti pa baby mo. hirap sa akin kasi lumaki sa lola e. he is 3 years old na diapers pa rin at night.

Congrats Raq. My almost 4 years old still wears diaper. He's potty trained but as he had informed me yesterday...
"Mommy, I know how to use to toilet, but diaper's easier."

that means savings for sure :) ..in my case, we were able to train our son not to use diapers when he was 2, but the thing is, we had to assist him everytime he needs to go the toilet.

Tani said...

Congratulations! As a mom, the highlight of my day is when everybody goes to potty successfully at the end of the day. :)
