:yay:bliss:clap:kumbaya:grouphug:dance
I swore this day would never get here. I took everyone's advice from last week, and we just threw away all the pull-ups. Well, I didn't REALLY throw them away, because those suckers are way too expensive to waste :lol but we had Taylor throw them all in a garbage bag and put them out for the garbage man.
So, ever since Sunday she has been in her big girl panties, except when he it's bed time, and she has gone in the potty EVERY DAY! Pee and poop! :egypt She's had a few accidents, but that's to be expected. I'm so freaking happy!!!
She still isn't going at school though :confused
She holds it until she gets home. :dunno That needs to stop, but we're working on it.

Thats great news Michelle!!!!!!!!!
Yay Taylor :woohoo
Do you think that maybe how she was treated at school may have something to do with he holding it while she is there???

Do they have a child's potty at school or just a regular toilet? Many children are afraid of "falling in" when they have to use a regular sized toilet/seat. For that matter, many children have an issue using a toilet that is not "like home" regardless of the size of the seat. We had this problem with DS (he had other toileting issues as well but this one became an issue when we were out/about and when he started going to school). We were using one of those little "adapter" seats at home (sold in the kid aisle - sits on a regular toilet and makes the seat hole smaller and more comfortable for kids) so I got a second one that I took out with us (in a backpack) and they let him take it to school so that if he needed to go while he was there he would.

No, I didn't see that! I'll have to take a look.
Once she feels really comfortable using the potty altogether, I want to transition her to the big potty with one of the smaller seats on top of it.
Buuuuuut, she DID use the potty for the first time AT school today :yahoo

They look like regular potties, but they are mini size for the little kids. She still has to kinda hold herself on the seat though.
