Tips for outings

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Im at a breaking point here...we dont stay home all the time. I am a SAHM but I cant stay home all day every day-it drives me nuts. This week(week 2 of EC)he hasnt wanted to sit on the potty, but it seems like if he has to go he will sit long enough. So I guess that part is good(that he knows if he has to or not).

The problem comes when we arent at home. He gets really fussy so I will get him to a bathroom and hes wet, so =m guessing he fusses before he actually pees to let me know, but theres no way for me to know for sure. Would Pullups help? I looked at them today and they fade when wet so I thought that might be useful in figuring when exactly he fusses. Just need some input or tips!

pull ups can be useful for the easy access, pull up pull down aspect. The fading thing does not help at all. Since i am ecing i change dd as soon as she wets (or as soon as I think she wets) so there is usually only 1 pee in the pull up and the marks don't fade until there are several pees in there (like at night but even then they don't always fade so I wouldn't rely on that).
I find dd has less misses when we are out. Not sure why (probably bcs she is right w/ me so I am paying better attention to her). A waterproof trainer that gets off and on really easy was very helpful. Also keeping a bblp in the car and offering every time I took her out of her car seat and before I put her back in, etc seemed to work. Good luck and don't stress about it
