Slow Progress

It has been over two weeks since my last post, and I am disappointed to say that little progress has been made in the potty training front. Baby K has been willing to sit in the toilet at daycare when it's time to change her diaper, but other than the one-off earlier this month, she hasn't actually peed in the toilet. She did pee in her potty chair today, but that was the first time in over two weeks. Yesterday she refused to put on a diaper, so I allowed her to wear only underwear under her pants. I would ask her every five minutes if she had to go (to the point where even I got annoyed at hearing me ask, "do you have to pee pee?"). The answer was "no" every time. The second I walked away, she decided to go. Eghh... how did I know that was going to happen? Fortunately it was only pee we had to deal with, but still a mess to clean up.

I told myself I wasn't going to force the issue... that I would let baby K wean off of diapers when she's ready (I just wish she'd be ready sooner rather than later). Baby K understands the concept; I just don't think she's comfortable going in the potty chair yet. We are down to the last box of diapers and I was hoping we wouldn't have to restock, but it doesn't look very promising at this point.
