Day 11 Sunday March 6th
Did not record today, we caught a poop and a few pees and went to the provincial park for a walk. Katie was quite pleasant today. Would not pee at feedings last night. Had a nap in the morning and short ones throughout the day. Ate a lot at dinner and lunch. she seems to eat more if it's a variety. I hope keeping her up late doesn't make it too hard to put her to bed when we get home form hockey. Over all, good day. Taking care of Izzy as well as Dexter tomorrow, so probably won't be diaper free much, but will try!

Day 12 Monday March 7th
Katie has been drinking less milk again, so I guess that meas she's done her growth spurt or whatever it was. This means she's not peeing as often :) I'm not longer recording timings because it was stressing me out and I was relying to heavily on timings, which wasn't working because she was feeding like crazy last week. We caught about half today, which was good considering I was watching two babies. After a lot of searching, I found a couple of patterns for baby undies. I'm going to try to make a pair tonight, This way I can tell right away if she's peed and I shouldn't have to clean up as much. If they fit, I think I'll make 10 or so pairs. Katie is crawling and sitting up a lot more now, which might also be contributing to peeing less, since she has less pressure on her tummy, or maybe her muscles are just strengthening.

Day 13 Tuesday March 8th
We're still lucky to catch half, but i've read that it could take a couple months for late starters ( 6 months + or mobile) We had a few few small successes today, I was able to catch two pees in a row while she was in undies, before she peed in them. These tiny undies are proving to be worth the time spent making them. It's like having her in a fitted cloth diaper without the cover, but they're much trimmer and thinner. She also seems to still be crawling over to me fussing when she needs to go. Sometimes she goes on cue, sometimes she needs a distraction to relax her enough to pee, and other times she squirms and cries until i get frustrated and put her down, where she then pees on the floor. I need to try to not get frustrated, as this is supposed to be a natural process.

Day 14 Wed March 9th
Today is going pretty well. She still seems to be consistent with crawling over to me fussing, unless of course she is WAY to busy playing to notice that she needs to pee. She had a big breakfast and hasn't had a lot to drink yet, so her pees are small and farther apart. Going to make more undies today, her two pairs didn't last very long this morning. She also seems to be good at staying dry during naps. Night time is another story, but we're not going to focus on night time ECing until we've mastered daytime EC.

On a side note, I still hate when she pees on the floor minutes after I offered her the potty, but i'm starting to get less frustrated with it,
