Poo-Poo
We bought a potty a while ago, just so that Emily could get used to it being around. She doesn't mind sitting on it with her clothes on but she is really not keen on how it feels on her bare bum. So we knew the time wasn't quite right for full on potty training.
But now it seems a lot closer. Two things happened today. The first, this morning while at Granny's house, she pointed to her bum and said 'poo-poo!', i asked her if she had done a poo and she said 'yesh' and indeed she had!
Then this afternoon, while upstairs playing with her toys, she put the changing mat on the floor, got a nappy, the wipes and cream and started tugging at her nappy. At first I thought it was a game but sure enough, when I checked, there was another 'poo-poo'!
So maybe the potty training is not too far away after all. For some reason I am quite nervous about this, I am sure it is straight forward enough but I am quite apprehensive of the whole affair, including the hazardous 'no nappy - carpets' scenario.
I'm rather bemused, I've been reading the Blog for some time and It's all been rather alien to me (only having a cat and a rabbit) but poo poo has gone beyond I'm not sure how to respond and have to admit to finding the odd very small baby kind of cute(don't tell Paul) but poo poo has thrown me, at least I have wooden floor throughout downstairs so should an Emily age person be visiting carpet stains wouldn't be an issue, but should I find this a cute stage of development or alarmingly yucky? love you both you mad mummy and daddy people!
