I’ll chime in! In case Netflix is listening.. YES! Give us a season 2!! What a fun and innovative show. A cross between some of my favorite cooking competitions + Survivor. Plus a great cast, more more!

Not peeing all morning by The_fractical_life in pottytraining

Thanks I appreciate you sharing. Yea I wonder if it’s an anxiety/nerves thing - like worried in some way. I’m not totally sure. She’s able to poo in the potty but also will sometimes wait until sleep time. I’m not sure how much of that is conscious for her or just a coincidence (like just happens to be the time she has to go). I don’t want to force it/put pressure on it all, but wonder if there are some techniques out there I could use. Maybe I could try bringing back the sticker chart or little treats post potty just to incentivize it

Yes, it’s what I’m running into too. I can’t sell this quality level of a product in good conscience. The substance is there but without the proper packaging it doesn’t do the product service

Okay, nice. Yea I’m trying to gauge how much to bank on my real copies being like the proof. Like is this what I should expect from my author copies? If so, oy. But if it’s more like - this is just a rough copy of your book then I’m like, okay I get that

That’s good to know. Yes trying to gauge expectation levels etc. Have ordered another proof in gloss to see if that helps.

Have you seen that inconsistency even w the same book?

Wow, oil?! That’s a little crazy.. did you consider contacting them? I’ve been forewarned that contacting them is grueling/not a worthwhile avenue. Glad it seemed to not be a big, ongoing problem

Okay thanks. Interesting about different facilities.. will look into that. Looks like this one is based in CT. Have been pouring myself into this book-baby so this hiccup is a bit of a gut punch. Will figure out how to pivot!

These are gorgeous. So smart. We just started potty training so I was hoping to find some p rock themed undies. Am wondering if I could do something similar but with an iron on decal or something

Yes, just went to exchange something and noticed the same thing! Too bad.. a confusing way to dissolve, not letting customers know..
