those of you that have found success with the Babywise book may be interested to know that the Pottywise book is absolutely phenomenal. i have just started the re-reading process with this book because calvary is beginning to show signs of readiness. he is staying dry through naptime and letting us know when he has a wet diaper (or the alternative). he thinks the potty is all a big game right now. he goes over and squats and makes the *psssssssssss* sound with his mouth and then runs off laughing. harper was completely trained by the time she was 20 months old. i know it is ridiculous to expect the same thing but i would be lying if i did not admit that i secretly have at moments. i am learning, as we all do with experience, that the best approach is just to not freak out. i think that is why i love the Babywise series; each book pairs a little helpful know-how with a little common sense. i gain just enough confidence with the information provided that i feel like i can be creative and do what works best for my family and just enough structure so i know what to avoid. i highly recommend the book to anyone tackling this process...
