Josh: Go diaper less
I'm so glad that these four days, we didn't use diapers on Josh, and especially at night already. This is really commendable because all along, during night time, we would use a diaper for him.
Of course we tried to wean him out of diapers at night from July onwards. However, he urinated on the bed sheets quite a few times, and I had to clear the mess and change his clothes.
Really want to thank God that he is able to be diaper less!! Which means effective date is 1st September 2012!
Journey
----------
His journey to diaper less is not smooth but we kept pressing on. Last December, we started to let him read this book entitled: Boys' Potty Time. It's an engaging book where it teaches children to sit on potty for their small and big business- we term as 'pass urine' and 'pass motion'.
Soon he started to pass motion in it! We are so amazed and since after my birthday, 22nd Dec 2011, he has began to potty train in the day. At night, he still used diapers.
Even when we were overseas, we brought along our potty. And it worked. Of course pass urine he was able to do it in the toilet, but for passing motion, he was not comfortable with the toilet seats. So we have to slowly assure him that it's the same.
Persistent effort and constant prayers actually help to make the whole diaper process easier and successful. Really very glad because his school started in January 2012, and he didn't even wore diapers a single time to school! And he was able to communicate to the teachers that he wants to pass urine.
Our next step is to get him to comfortably pass motion on the toilet bowl :)
