Potty Training Week 3 & 4

Week 3 proved to be the pivotal week, Cora finally figured out how to use that little muscle and just let the pee out. She'll go when I ask her to and doesn't hold it any more. This is huge!!! Because she doesn't hold it, that also means she doesn't throw fits and going to the bathroom is not a dramatic 30-60 minute ordeal anymore ending with both of us in tears. What a relief!!! (Pun intended).

With this week being week 4, we're working on her going before running errands, playing outside, before leaving the house, etc. Occasionally she'll still hold in her poo so we're working on that this week as well. She has a lot more confidence and understanding and is much happier. That also means I'm much happier! 

She filled up her second potty chart and it seems to be a great motivator so I'm going to stick with it. I appreciate the support of Mom and Dad sending Cora rewards as well, Grandpa sent her a box of chocolates this week. She's so sweet she wanted to share with all of us, they were delicious. I'm so proud of Cora, this is such a big deal and a big feat for her!!
