Potty Trained!?!
Well it seems like Quinn may finally be potty trained...
He wore underwear to school Thursday and Friday and kept them clean the whole day. He wore underwear all day today too and had no accidents. He's really good about telling us when he needs to go which is good since he doesn't take well to use nagging him to just try and sit on the toilet. On several occasions he's done the whole task by himself but even then he likes to let everyone know afterwards... it's still a big deal in his book :-)
He still has yet to use a public restroom. We were out quite a bit today and I'd like to think our trips were perfectly timed but I really think it's just his OCD kicking in. Hopefully he'll find a way to get over it. We even bought a portable, fold-up toilet seat to make it all easier on him... I have to admit, I did get a bit nervous when he fell asleep at dinner. I was holding him and continuously worried that his "asleep" body may not remember that he was wearing underwear. Turns out there was nothing to worry about!
He still uses a diaper at night but last night he really impressed me. He was in bed and about 15 minutes after he had fallen asleep I heard him call out "Mommy, I have to go potty". He got out of bed and really did have to go to the bathroom. So even with a diaper on he chose to use the potty - a big step for him.
