momofkhm Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 How and when did you wean your child off them? After they were going consistently in the potty. I would occasionally not have an M&M. Like when we were away from home. Then in the middle of the day. They would get fewer and fewer M&Ms. But they were still going in the potty. Then one day we'd just be "out" of M&M's.

MeaganS Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Good question. I'm at that phase. We used the heart candies from Valentine's day and I am down to my last 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiseOwlKnits Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 When they started just barely peeing so that they could get more M&M's. Then we had to pee twice (all the way) to get one...then 3 times...then once a day...I did this over the span over a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only gets them for BMs. He now wants to eat more fruit - so that he poops more - so that he can have more M&Ms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn in OH Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I don't offer the M&M any more. If he remembers to ask for it, I will give it. I did the same thing with the older two children. Eventually they stopped asking for it. I am currently still letting Owen have his M&M if he asks for it because he will still have accidents when he is engaged in other activities. Owen turns 4 in August and I think I may just "run out" of M&M's then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
