Potty Training

I've completed the 3 Day Potty Training program.  Day 2 seemed to be going well, she woke up dry from her name, went pee on the potty, and managed to poop on potty.  Day 3 didn't go so well... she woke up dry but then had accidents and pooped in her pants while carrying on with her day?!  When it's all said and done, she never told me "mommy, I need to go potty" once during the 3 days.

By end of day 3, I was becoming frustrated... I put everything I had into this program, I followed it to a tee, reading, and re-reading the book... I had to take a step back and realize Noa was also part of the equation.

3 Day Potty Training focuses on the child learning their own body signals.  The biggest point is to remind your child to keep their panties dry, and trusting your child to tell you when they have to go potty.   The method is not about asking a child if they have to go potty, going to the toilet on timed intervals, or sitting on the toilet and "trying" to go.  Purchase of the eBook includes mentoring by the founder, Lora Jensen.  I did contact her and she was responsive, even on her day off.
