Potty training & data taking

Where to turn if the potty fails: Now we are getting more complex--we use data. What?!?! Potty data? you may ask. Yes potty data. (I will attach a potty data sheet next, I just need to find it on my computer first) You will want to record when he is going #1 and #2 and see if this correlates with eating/drinking or sleeping. You do this by putting him undies (you can buy extra thick ones so he doesn't go all over the place) and then record when he goes for a day or two. This will tell you if your child is a frequent urinator or can hold off for longer periods of time. This way you will know how often you need to take Ollie to the potty if you chose the next method.
