Hi all - back lurking in here looking at old posts! very funny to read back, I found out a couple of weeks ago I'm pregnant again! was a wee bit of a shock as we really only started trying last month. Haven't told anyone yet though I'm going away for a girls weekend in Qtown this weekend so will have to spill the beans or they will no something is up.

My wee man is just so cool - hes got a great sense of humor and is just the cutest darn thing. Though hes been getting his eye teeth so hasn't been happy the last couple of nights - why he has to get all 4 at once I'll never know! Still not walking - which is going to get hard the more preggo I get, he can walk if he wants too he just is such a fast crawler he can be bothered with it!

I saw your post on the november board Mrs0ana!! Congratulations!!

Congrats to you too NicNoc, hope you had a great weekend away!!!

2 more sleeps until my scan, starting to get nervous!

congratulations both of you!
those tshirts look like fun, MrsA.

What do you think my chances are of having DD toilet trained by 26/27 months? unlikely? or possible if she's ready?

I agree lisame - if she is ready. Have just been reading about it too OmrsOanaO for my grandson. The book I just read said if they are doing some of the following: over 22 months, aware whats happening in nappy, comes to tell you they are wet/dirty, can understand basic instructions like sit down, stop running, bring to mummy, can concentrate on an activity for 5 - 10 min.
From my own expeience you need to be consistant. When you start do not go back to nappies except to sleep. Have them wear underpants that they can take off and for the first few days no trousers but a skirt would be ok. Also can check if they understand wet/dry like hands or clothes. Rewards are good and a "happy dance" by Mum/Dad/Gran when they are successful. Never be negative about wet/dirty nappies even befopre you start so they don't try and hide it. I used to read to my daughter before her afternoon sleep so she would do poos in the toilet. otherwise she would be in bed for 5 - 10 min then do it and I would have to change her nappy and re-settle her to sleep.

Hope this helps and good luck when you start - this is for everyone including myself and my daughter lol

something that seems to be missing off catgirl's list is knowing BEFORE they need to go... and being able to tell you that (whether in words or actions).

Mrs Ana, M is really interested in the potty and the toilet, and what goes on, and she'll sit on it happily and play with toilet paper etc, often before her bath too as we've noticed that's when she'll often wee. She hasn't done anything in the potty yet, like you, but I guess if she did and we made a big fuss, then she might be more likely to do it again...

But that's not really toilet training yet is it, cos we are guessing when she might need to go, and if she does or not it's luck? More like what they do in EC - where you get to know their habits and put them on a potty or whatever when you think they're about to go? What do they do when you're not around to do the predicting?
