SIX AND A HALF POTTY TRAINING TRICKS

When she pees, we pee!

Any parent knows that one of the most significant changes in their child is that moment when they finally start to use the potty and don't need diapers anymore. It is also one of the few cost cutting moves we look forward to because lets face it, diapers are not cheap! Potty training can be stressful and discouraging. It needs a lot of patience and creativity because every one of these toddlers is unique even though they defecate the same way. 

When we started potty training, I would always get irritated by the parents who would brag about their kids having learnt how to use the toilet at an early age. I however, am not here to brag rather try and help. For some kids this takes months and for others just a couple of days. The number one secret is to be patient! It will happen when your toddler is ready. Who knew that at some point in life we would be getting so excited about how these little humans poop and pee! This was such a big moment for us so I decided to share what we did. Here are my six and a half potty training tricks!

WHY I'M BECOMING A MUM VLOGGER

A few minutes past 10:00 am on the 10th of October this year, I put out my first YouTube video. It talks about why I made the choice to become a mum vlogger. I have to admit, I have know idea what I'm getting into and if there is a formula on how to do this right please feel free to share. What I am sure of however is why I am doing this and that I hope many of you will be able to relate as well. 

Here's goes!

In the last couple of years, my life has gone through so many changes. I sometimes feel like I'm having an outer body experience. Within this time I have gone through the joys and pains of being a young mother, getting married, losing my own mum, getting a new family and getting pregnant all over again. The only constant thing in my life now seems to be change and everyday I discover new ways to embrace and learn from it.

There are plenty of other young wives and mothers out there. My story is not unique. I'm taking this step to help remind others that there really is no formula to parenting or being a spouse. You just learn on the go! This is also a journey of self discovery for me which I hope I can use to somehow inspire another mum or wife out there because life is short and we have to find a way to make the most of out of every moment.
