Welcome CatherineL. I'm new to this post as well and have also recently moved to the GC from Sydney. Loving it so far. I live south on the GC towards Palm Beach. Congrats on the pregnancy too.
Wondering if any of the mums with older kids have any tips for toilet training? I'm definitley not enjoying this period of my little pumpkins life...well, anything to do with going to the toilet at least. She's got the number 1's all sortedalthough refers to wanting to do any motion as "done poohs"
....I'm about to give up though as it's a very frustrating time with number 2's! When she's halfway through an activity she'll ask to go, so of course we take her. Once on the toilet for a bit, she then doesn't want to do it, but then 5 minutes later she wants to go back to the toilet. Eventually we give up and don't take her to the toilet anymore and low and behold, she'll do it in her pants
She doesn't appear to have a "usual" time that she does them and can sometimes be done a day later despite a diet high in fibre and fluids. I don't recall any particular time where it hurt her and consequently she is holding onto them, so not real sure how to approach this bump in the road so to speak. Anyway, would love any tips anyone has.....SO over "done poohs"
