Potty issues I'm getting so frustrated with Mindy. She's 8 months now and this morning my daughter caught her peeing on my beautiful Christmas tree skirt. When I went to clean it I found that she had done it once before already. Bear isn't much better but I'm hoping with him it's his age and he will get it soon. I keep them in their x pen most of the time because of this and the minute they are free they are pooing and peeing all over the place. I praise them when they do go on their pad and I say No and put them on the pad when they go elsewhere. I'm beginning to think they will never be trained. I'd think by 8 months she should have gotten it by now. I'm I wrong to think this? I don't know what else to do. I'm at a loss other then to keep them in their xpen all the time but my husband thinks that's no life for them but I'm thinking maybe if they were contained for a while they would get used to only going on the pad. Oh ya...they will go on the floor and the rug.
Any suggestions??? |
