We we're not going to potty train until the new baby got here, but Makenna has taken it upon herself to get busy. We went ahead and bought her a potty chair (which she refuses to use...she likes the BIG potty). We bought her big girl panties (pull-ups). And started rewarding her with an M&M everytime she went potty.
Well... We are going on 5 days with a great record. Still no poopies in the potty, but no wet pants! Our problem now is the M&M's. She now runs to the potty every 10-15 minutes saying she has to potty, we sit her on the toilet and she goes maybe 2-3 drops procalims herself a 'good girl' and then holds out her hand for the M&M. Now she is only doing it for the candy. She isn't 'holding' her pee-pee so that she goes all at once, she is seriously going every 10 minutes just a few drops. If we dont give her the candy, a major tantrum errupts. I don't want her to quit pottying b/c she isn't getting her candy, but I also dont want her to think she can eat candy all day long for going pee-pee like 3 drops.
What do I do??????
