Next weekend we have decided to try Bella at potty training (God help us). To be honest, I’m feeling quite nervous about it. For one, I have no idea what I’m doing and secondly Bella is in a particularly defiant mood at the moment. She also decided to take a dump in the bath tonight-not a good start!

I’ve decided to arm myself with knowledge and I’m reading Oh Crap! Potty Training by Jamie Glowacki and my good friend recommended Gina Ford’s Potty Training in One Week. I’ll give you my verdict on both once the training begins!

I’ve also brought a couple of Potty bedtime stories to plant the seed and to make Bella feel at ease with it all. She is definitely talking about it more and I think she’s more aware when she’s about to do her business.

I’ve also brought a Peppa Pig reward potty chart & stickers to help motivate her. I think I’ll know after a couple of days whether she is ready or not. If she isn’t ready, no big deal, we will try again in a couple of months. Wish me luck people!
