Well, after all my grumbling about how it's okay to not be potty-trained at 3, Camden finally decided to join the big-boy club! It took a lot of work on Christian, mine and Nana Taylor's part to make him sit on it despite his reluctance, but we've realized with Camden that this is what it takes. If Camden has a fear (in this case the potty-chair itself...in earlier cases the slide, his bicycle, etc) he will not turn a corner and try things on his own. We have to force the issue. After he realized that he was going to have to sit on it a few times a day regardless of what fit he threw, he began complying. Then the pottying was easy.
He still doesn't like going, but would prefer that over an accident. Oh, and the kid hates praise, he often tells me, "Momma, don't tell me good job when I go potty, just stay quiet." Whatever it takes, buddy. Also, he already is out of a diaper at nap and nighttime! He loves being a big boy and I even signed him up for an indoor baseball class over the summer. Go Camden!
