EMERGENCY!

I really looked forward for school holidays so that I can train Jayden to be diaperless (and also so that i can wake up late :P). Since he only attend sch in the morning and comes home at 1130am, it's very hard for me to train him to go diaperless cos once he is at home he will eat his lunch, bath and straight to sleep with diaper on so that he can sleep longer. So since its sch hols, it means that I will see him 24 hours and it will be easier for me to train him.

Both me and my niece keep asking him "Jayden do you want to go shee shee?" like every 10 to 15 minutes. Sometimes he would tell us "I want go shee shee!" and wait for us to run with him to the toilet (cos when he says he need to go means HE REALLY NEED TO GO IMMEDIATELY!) or he'll run to the toilet and pee on the floor with his pants on :S

So tik tok tik tok and finally he can tell us without fail he needs to go to the loo but it must be an immediate thinggy. He still doesn't know how to "tahan" his urine. So that day (forgot when) we decided to bring him to Tesco without any diapers on ( darn confident!) Before leaving our house, we brought him to the toilet and also made him pee in the potty in the car before going into Tesco. So we though we're so safe.

Nope.

While shopping in the ketchup aisle, suddenly he said "I WANT SHEE SHEE!"

Oh man.. I was so damn worried. HOW? HOW????

HOW???

EMERGENCY!!!!

HOW???

Options:
1. Let him pee in his pants and change his pants.
2. Grab him and run to the fish section and let him pee in the sink. (No Way!!)

Nope didn't do both. I did option 3.

I quickly grab the plastic bag that Jayden was holding and quickly pulled him to one side and pulled his pants down. (And... I was carrying Justin in my arms. Where was Big C? He was standing right behind Jayden and stood there looking at us. He said the day before, we're laughing at this maid using a coke bottle for the boy to pee and today we kena.. so he said he was blank and couldn't think of anything!) I gotto do everything with one available hand!

Yes.. so Jayden peed in the plastic bag with his head down.

And make it worst passerby went like "HEY GOOD IDEA! Eh you see they used plastic bag to ....blablabla"

And Jayden? He was so so so shy keep puting his head down.

I know.. very very malufying moment for all of us. but.... but its emergency! No toilet nearby and definitely cannot make it on time to the toilet downstairs.....

So what happened after that was.. now he would tell us in advance that he needs to go to the toilet and he can even "tahan" his poo or pee if we're in the car. So maybe the malufying moment did taught him how to tell earlier and also "tahan" himself. And of course, I learnt my lesson too - don't laugh at people if they use coke bottle for the kiddo to pee. Karma ah.....

  3. Lucky you had the bag with you, if not die lor. It's normal lar. We used to bring an empty mineral bottle when we went for a bus trip (no toilet) to Singapore for Brae to pee. It worked! As for Shay, she peed once on her car seat during our dinner trip...kena scolded and piak piak kau kau from daddykhong..now smart edi..no more shee shee in the car :). Sometimes must get them to feel malu a bit then they will learn..the hard way.

  6. I would have done the same too, or use the plastic bags provided by Tesco for groceries, or use my own water tumbler! Lesson learnt hor - never go out without a diaper in your bag.... or a small bottle in your handbag haha!
    BTW, where's the Japanese Garden?

  8. Everything happens for a reason. Yes.. quite embarassing but since you don't know these people, boh chap la. The good good thing about this whole episode is really about Jayden. And I'm sure Big C will be more responsive now when it comes to Justin's next time. :D

  11. we used a lot of plastic bags for jo too during those days when we trained him to be diaperless, it's a good idea at least we didn't need to run him to toilet during shopping time.

  13. sasha, we always use plastic bag for shan leo since he was diaper-less. it is so convenient! we always carry plastic bags in our handbag for him. but now, we will bring him to the toilet unless it is an emergency, and the plastic bag will be really handy!

  14. for boys, it's easy to use plastic bags. for girls susah. I take my girl for shee shee every time before leaving house & arriving at destination and every 20 minutes or so, I'll ask. Initially it's back breaking but after a while, they'll control better and tell you. Always keep a potty for 'big business' in standby in car. Jayden's learning and will improve in time.

    If we're outdoors, Lucas will request to, "Pee in the bushes!" LOL
