For the past 3 weeks now a new routine at bedtime has been in play. Originally thought through by John but tweeked by me and it is this:-
1. Thomas' Poo Fun Time (10 minutes)
2. David tidies bedroom (10 minutes)
3. Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday its fun in the bath time followed by teeth foam party and cloudy talc time.
4. On a Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturfay it's face washing followed by teeth foam party.
5. Snuggly story time and zzzzzzz time.
The whole point of this was to get Thomas comfortable to do a poo. It has been horrible (as my last blog said) but (and as typing this i'm touching a lot of wood) the routine is working
In the last week it has been relatively easy to get Thomas to go to the toilet. No screaming matches no refusing to go. Bliss, I can tell you. I really thought we were heading back to the doctors again but, fingers crossed, we should be okay.
Now we have our next hurdle ahead of us. Going on holiday. Holidays I dread them, more about that another time. Lets just celebrate the fact that there is one less tantrum happening a day which was making life in the Crocker household miserable.
