Tuesday morning. 7:45am. Take Jake out of crib to change his diaper and clothes for the day.
Need to be out of house in exactly 15 minutes.
Jake has a dry diaper. I know that if I close it and dress him, he will pee in about one minute and I've also just noticed there are no baby wipes to be seen anywhere in his room.
Mommy needs to improvise and fast.
Mommy takes 2.5 yr old, who refuses to potty train and is naked into the bathroom. He is seated on the small potty and is held down by Mommy who then proceeds to talk him through peeing as she forcefully keeps him seated on the potty. Except talking him through is more like bribing him through. Everything under the sun is offered until she strikes gold.
Chocolate bunny.
Peeing commences.
It's wonderfully flowing pee, great peeing, lots of peeing. Mommy is pleased. Mommy can then wipe him with toilet paper, though she's still not sure if boys do that.
Diaper is then put on. Chocolate bunny is handed out.
The potty training door has been cracked open.
Pretty sure these methods are not in any book anywhere.
