Oh Crap! Potty Training: Everything Modern Parents Need to Know to Do It Once and Do It Right by Jamie Glowacki
4.0
This book is especially great if you have no idea where to start! I did stray a little from the book, for example there is no way I'm waking my LO up in the middle of the night to pee, but for the most part this was great.
The rest of my opinion on this book is super negative but I still gave 4 stars because it helped me so much with getting started.
Like others have mentioned the tone is kind of annoying, but the worst part is definitely the overuse of "i" and "me" and inserting irrelevant personal experiences. For example in the poop chapter, there is a part where the author talks about her child's amazing daycare, for like 3 paragraphs.
The use of I, me, and my was really distracting. Maybe the intent was a laid back conversation but it came across as a know-it-all telling you all the ways you're failing or will fail if you don't follow her advice.
