Yes... as with any new parent, many of our conversation topics have been reduced to what Maya is eating and how many diapers were used (and with what contents) per day. Input & Output. It's a sad reality that we all must go through...
That said, Maya used the potty today for a #1!!!!! Woo Hoo!!! As a reward, she got her first candy - one smartie! John was with her and made a really big deal about it. She was so pleased with herself. As today is her 17-month birthday, we are thrilled that she's getting the hang of this so early in the game.
We just bought several more cloth diapers, assuming that we'd be using them for many more months. I think I need to go pull-up diaper shopping now. Is there such a thing as a pull-up cotton diaper?! I guess I'll find out...
They're called training pants ;-) and they're quite old-fashioned. Motherease sells some lovely ones. Try not to get too excited about it, cuz they almost all love to go potty initially and then realize it's not that exciting after all.
