Ella is 4 and she is trying, but doesn't always get the job done. I can understand her having a problem with #2, but I think she should be able to handle #1 with no problem, but she hasn't been successful there either.

Hannah is 3 and 2 months. I have her try to wipe herself first and then I check and make sure it's good. She does great with pee, and sometimes good with poo. I expect by 4, she'll be doing fine on her own. We all use wipes for poo...it's just cleaner. Kat, wasn't it Marshall that was recently constipated? How did that work out? I'm asking because you mentioned he may need help with wiping, while the poo in the undies could actually be a sign of the constipation and liquid leaking around the hard poo, if he's still having issues with that.

May I ask what you did to solve the constipation issue? If he continues to have issues with that, you can PM me. Noah has a pedi gastroenterologist for his issues, but I don't want to post too much since he's getting older and it embarrasses him.

ORIGINAL: peculiar_lady2 are your lights like Germany where they go from green to yellow to red to yellow, or do they only do yellow before red? Over here in the states it's only before red...in Germany it was yellow before any change. The order here in the UK is Red (stop), Red and Amber (be ready to go), Green (go), then Amber (be ready to stop), Red (stop). I am confused!! Here in Australia if you are stopped at the lights its red, goes to green when you can go. Then when its time to almost stop it goes to amber then red. So you guys have one more amber then us then?

LOL I was going to say with the poop wiping that even some adults don't wipe very well... In Kindy I had 4 year olds that still needed help sometimes, but they mostly all could do it. Grace is good with #2 there is the odd miss, but she never seems to want to wipe after #1 and gets all red and sore. So like Manda, she is told to "let it drip" and then get off and wipe.

If necessary, I'd pick my child up and remove them from the room, or at least go and stand at the back with them. I wouldn't smack (your spank) in public. I took Manda's advice about the hand squeezing long ago when Timmy was around 13ish months. It worked. He hasn't hit me since then. I don't spank in public either. I don't want to get in trouble with CPS or the police or something.

That's funny because Mary is being a cranky pants today. No matter where she is she just can't seem to relax. She is okay right now in her swing, but she is pretty noisy about it.

Nath was such a pain last night. He went down at about 9pm, woke just before 10 and screamed until 11.20pm. I had to basically stand the whole time bouncing him. I have no idea what was wrong but he didn't stop screaming the whole time and nothing new in my diet or his. He is teething but he was doing his old get stiff and arch back routine so maybe something bothered his belly. all I know is I am very tired!

Nicole, poor little guy, don't you hate it when there's something wrong and you can't just "fix" it?? Oh, I can't remember who asked, but I have been in contact with Room2Grow, and there was no major crisis or anything, and she said she will stop in sometime soon and update everyone. And she said thanks for asking about her!

What is it with our kiddos? Last night Z started waking and screaming at 11 and did so every TEN minutes until 2 AM. OK, not bad enough that I had a newborn that wanted to nurse all night as well and was waking about every hour to eat but that too??? Last night DH asked if it was OK if Gideon slept with us. I had a hard time not laughing at him. When Z was a newborn and I suggested her co-sleeping with us on the nights she just wanted to scream all night and he said NO WAY! He didn't want to set her up with the habit of sleeping with us. Gideon's first night in the hospital he screamed for hours with DH trying to calm him, when I took over I brought him to my bed and he slept the rest of the night (from 1AM to 8AM). I think it won him over for doing it at least on occasion. Just thought it was funny that he asked out of the blue like that.

Yeah. I was very glad that my firstborn was at my sister's last night. He would have cried just because the other two were.

Nicole, do you have your profile set to public in photobucket? Because you have the full link there, but it only brings me to the photobucket homepage...

That's weird. I watched Nicole's video already (it was so cute!) but now when I try I just get the homepage too.
