Hi -
Edited to add...please, please! I've tried to be active here for years & could really use your advice. Thx!
--------
OK, we're going to try for a Dr. Phil-like Potty Party on Sunday, so I've got to shop TODAY (and overnight some). I need your help! Can you pls recommend:
1) WHICH PEE-ON-DEMAND DOLL? There is one that is only $20 by Little Mommy - looks like it has some issues, but it does have the baby only pee when ON the potty, which I like. The other one (Corelle something) is so expensive and the third one I found will just pee straight through - not good.
2) ELMO POTTY TRAINING KIT? Maeve is obsessed with Sesame Street. Does anyone recommend the Elmo doll in addition/in place of a pee-on-demand doll? I'm thinking I might get it TOO b/c he is her hero (he'll be calling the house after she successfully goes in the potty - you should hear my Elmo voice!), but I like that it really makes telling your mommy/someone that you NEED to go potty b/c that seems like a hard part.
3) WHICH STEP/STOOL? She sits on the regular potty now (thanks to all of you for the advice on this issue), so we're going to keep going with that. Do you have a stool you recommend, esp one that slides easily up to the base of a toilet and is stable?
4) ANYONE FIND A SEAT THAT ATTACHED TO THE REGULAR TOILET THAT WORKS? I like the idea of that b/c it's still special for her. I think I saw a brand called Flip-n-Flush or something like that? Anyone use them and recommend them (she'd love a pink or purple one). I also saw the Cushie Tooshie or something that has a ring on top that can hang. That's my main issue - I don't want the seat to get tossed on the floor when she's not using it on the potty.
5) ANYTHING ELSE YOU STRONGLY RECOMMEND?
Thanks, all!
