Potty Training

Ok, here goes. I am going to try to potty train Emma this week. If it doesn't work, then I will try again in November. (I hopefully will be pregnant in the next month or two so I anticipate I will feel gross for a while). So my plan is to camp out in our living room down stairs on the hard wood floor, which is easier to clean up accidents than on the carpet. I put panties on her and we were off! She peed on herself 3 times in 45 min! She totally flipped out crying, I knew she would, she hates to be messy. Well, after cleaning her up 3 times I decided to sit her on the potty every 15min. After the second time I sat her on the potty she peed! Yeah! What a big girl. She liked to put her panties on herself, there is a really cute picture of her panties on backwards! So, she didn't pee on the floor or in the potty again before her nap. I put her in a diaper for her nap, she peed a ton 5 min after I put her in it so I changed her. She actually woke up dry, so I put her on the potty. She sat on the potty in front of the TV for an hour with no pee! I asked her if she wanted to wear a diaper or panties and she said panties. She didn't pee on herself again, she was dry from the beginning of her nap until bed time. I put a nighttime diaper on her and she pooped and peed in the diaper 10 min afterwards. So, I don't know, it might not be time yet. She did pee on the potty once and she was dry for a long period, so who knows. I won't give up after one day.

Doesn't she look so cute in big girl panties?
