Question???

Hailee is potty training. I knew she has been ready for awhile, but lately when we are places and she is in a diaper she asks to go and they brought her to me from nursery because she kept telling them she had to go (she had a diaper on) So she was in undies after church as she often is and fell asleep with Tyler while watching football (she loves football) and she woke up over an hour later dry. I was going to wait till after the holidays, but I changed my mind. She has been doing great. No accidents in the past 2 days even through shopping, me leaving her for an hour in the gym daycare, and being at home. But her problem is not the Number 1 she hates going number 2 on the potty. She never has. I put her in diapers for nap and bedtime. I know some may say all or nothing works better, but this is working well for us. As soon as I put the diaper on she poops. What can I do to get her to poop in the potty? My mom says wait it out, she hates to be wet or sticky ( sound familar, Toni?) and she will get sick of accidents and just learn. But I know it frustrates her, it doesn't bother me to clean up if she has a poop accident, but I want her to feel more confident about it. And I don't get mad about it with her, I just try to talk to her about it and tell her it is ok and it happens. Confidence has never been an issue with Hailee! :) Or should I not worry because she is not even 2 1/2. Maybe I am just thinking out loud.
In other news, I had an appt today and things went well. No weight gain! I can feel it coming though! My Dr. told me to gain about 20 pounds since I have abut 7 left over from Hailee (I hate to even admit that, but this time it is coming off and more!) That seems like it will be hard. Oh well. I hate weight more than anything in this world. Ok, maybe that is an exargeration.

Pooping....so apparently my lil bro had issues with this as well...My mom put his favorite candy (which happened to be M&M's) in a cute see through jar on a shelf above the toilet. If he peed he got a couple and if he went poo then he got extra. I'm not sure if that would motivate Hailee or not? Best of luck!
