Potty Training Hiccups & Tips

Now that you have started on the training and are quite in the middle of it, the next steps on your agenda will probably be night time dryness and pooping in the hole and basically waiting for your child to be diaper-free for good. For some kids it doesn't take that long, meaning within a month of acquiring day time dryness. While for others it can stretch to 6 months and beyond.

Sadly, your child continues to hold the reins.
