Ok so the Big news reads like this; on Sunday Mikes Mum & Dad where here visiting and what does Daniel do - WEE'S on his POTTY for the 1st time! Oh he was so pleased with himself, we all clapped and made such a fuss! He was thrilled. We have this "potty" book and it had a chart and stickers in the back and it works by giving the child a sticker each time he uses the potty. And there we have it, it just clicked he has since Sunday been using the potty, no nappies! (even did a poo on the potty yesterday - yay!) BUT and here it comes....Today he goes to nursey school and I ring up half way through the day and say "how is he doing with the potty?", answer; "hes not really, he Pooed 4 times and wee'd 4 times and has a load of wet clothes so we put him back in pull-ups!" that being the exact thing they told me not to do! So still dont know what we are doing with this really, they told me again to send loads of pants and undies in tomorrow and they will try again!. We decided the main problem is that he is so pre-occupied in school doing everything else he forgets to go potty! (although maybe I'm expecting a little much since its only been 4 days or so!), so for now we dont worry and just ride with this...will update as things progress.
Other Big news is I joined weight watchers last night, having not been to a "diet" club for several years now I'm feeling motivated and excited by it today (it may not last never has done before!) and i like the freedom of choice this new points thing is...you can still eat takeout and things like that, so its good. I even managed to get out of the office today and go for a half mile walk around the block, need to keep this up :-)
Please keep in your mind at this time, 2 online friends of mine who just lost there babies to the vile disease that is Biliary Atresia. (love to you Kristi & Lindsey)
