First Dry Night!

Holland had her very first dry night on Thursday night!!!

I put the girls to bed on Wednesday, and in the process completely forget to put her pull-up on. She burst into my room at about 6:30am saying, "I have to go potty!" I got up with her, and as I went to help her pull down her pull-up I realized she wasn't wearing one. And she was DRY! We had a mini-celebration in the bathroom, then went into the bedroom to tell Daddy. She went back to bed and woke up again 3 hours later...still DRY! She got 8 marbles in her "Good Job Jar" and was just beaming with pride.

We tried again the next 2 nights and haven't been lucky again.

But at least I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Awesome.. what kind of potty seat is that?

Eden's potty seat is by Swereco. You can find it here. It is great because it fits right on our toilet, doesn't take up a lot of space, and is very portable. We have 2 (one is yellow and an older model) for upstairs and downstairs. We also use it as a bath seat, in the sand box, at the beach, and in the kiddie pool!

Hooray! I always tell myself that if it can be done once, it can done again.

Way to go Holland!

Billie, I've been following your blog since my 25 weeker was born 3 1/2 years ago, and I'm so glad you've decided to continue sharing your life story. Your girls are precious!!

What country do you live in? I'm in the US and I want the potty seat.

We are from the US as well. The potty is made by a company in Switzerland, and we were able to order it through our durable medical equipment provider. It was covered by our insurance (which at the time was BCBS and MI Medicaid). It looks like the above link is outdated. If you look HERE you should be able to find it:-) There is a link for English at the top right of the website! HTH. Good luck!
