This guy just pooped on the big potty.
He stood up during his bath and he had that look on his face. So I asked him "Are you pooping?" He said "yeah." So I asked if he wanted to sit on the potty, to which he said "yeah" and made the baby sign for potty. Then I put him on and he did! And he was happy about it! And when he was done, he made the baby sign for all done and pointed to toilet paper. He was proud of himself too. And yesterday in the car, I heard him straining in the back seat so I asked if he wanted to poop on a potty. He said "yeah", so I pulled the car over, into the Taco Time lot. We didn't make it to the restroom before he went in his diaper, but still, for a kid under 18 months, I'm pretty proud.
It'll still be a while before he's actually potty trained I'm sure. It's slow going. But we're making progress, and I'm always thrilled with having one less diaper to wash.
