Just, take a deep breath, and commit to see potty training through to the end. Let us know how it's going:). @Jamie, I don’t think you can mess it up to the point of no return.

They are just learning. I think once you commit you have to go for it. No turning back or they get confused. And I laugh at the 24 hour training ideas. LMAO! I think it took a good week with Lochlan. Maybe longer with Keegan? But once we started, we kept at it, cleaned up a few messes and we were good to go. Both boys PTed to my satisfaction under the age of 2. Keeg by 21 months, Loch is trained now, by 19 months. I definitely agree – dont get angry! They are just learning.

I'm currently in this stage and I have gone on and off a bit (#4) - trying to decide if "we" are ready. Hopefully I haven't messed it up too bad! .-= Jamie´s last blog ..<a href="http://babygetgreen.blogspot.com/2009/08/just-start.html" rel="nofollow">Just Start</a> =-. Thanks for the post.

Unfortunately, #5 & #6 continue to describe me well! Thankfully, after doing #4 with my oldest child because I first did #1, #7, & #8--all of which led to #3--I have at least learned to wait patiently until my other children began/begin to display signs of readiness. Nevertheless, I realize that my children's potty training issues really reflect my own! So, please continue to share any helpful advice you have, since I still have one left to potty train!! Blessings, Whitney Stacie,
