Oh Crap! I Have a Toddler: Tackling These Crazy Awesome Years - No Time Outs Needed
V**1
Amazing toddler book that is EASY and FUN to read!
After having success in reading and using Oh Crap Potty Training, I had to purchase this book as well for my toddler parenting self help needs. I was just as impressed with this book as I was with the other one and here is why - the author is not only a professional, but a mom herself, and writes these books in a way that make you WANT to read them, because they are written in a language that is easy to understand.A lot of what she says also makes sense, and gets you to think about your approach to parenting and how to understand the way that they think, interpret, and handle situations at their level.I would highly recommend this book if you are looking for a way to really get into understanding the concepts yourself without being bored to death.

Must read for anyone with kids 5 and under!
Jamie Glowacki is an amazing parenting expert. I’ve been a fan of her OCPT method and her new podcast I love my Toddler but....(look it up!! :)). This will be the second parenting book I’ve ever read cover to cover. The first was the aforementioned Oh Crap! Potty Training book by the same author.If you listen to her podcast already some of the book will be repetitive but don’t let that deter you. There are things in her book that aren’t covered in the podcast and vice verse.Her writing style is super easy to read and it’s as if you are just conversing with your bff. I adore her no nonsense approach. Like her podcast there will be some naked truth bombs that make you uncomfortable but this is a good thing and what promotes change. Yeah? ;)I’m still only 1/3 through the book so I’m not 100% on applying all of her principles but it’s definitely helping to shift my mindset about importance of not letting my 4 & 2 yo run the house. I’ve learned when it’s okay to give in (& more importantly how!) and when it’s not and that’s been helpful thus far.

Helpful & funny!
Everything you've heard about this book is true - it's easy to read, funny, and full of answers to your burning questions about potty training. We've had a lot of success so far and are glad we're using this method!

READ THIS BOOK!
This book is amazing and the author is amazing. I was iffy on purchasing this book and I had read some review that were mixed. I am so glad I bought it. The author writes just like she's talking to you one on one and she's real. If you're a parent who is a helicopter parent you will not like this book, but I highly suggest you read it. If you're also someone who doesn't like cursing, then don't get this book. But let's be honest, she talks just like we all talk. REAL. Awesome awesome book. I can't wait to read the potty training book as I have a daughter who is turning two and it's time to potty train her.

Very helpful and encouraging.
This book was very readable, perfect for parents short on time. I found the advice very easy to retain and to put to use. I've folded a number of pages down so I can reread as I need reminders.

Worked for my family!
I had no clue about potty training before this book. I will say this is the only one I read My 2 year old is doing great. She tells us when she has to go. It's not an overnight or 3 day fix but I am happy with the results. Day 1 is awful (keep paper towels and cleaning supplies on hand!) Don't give up! It does get better following the advice of this book. We haven't done the night training where the author suggests waking the kid up at 2am..we're finally enjoying sleep through the night!

Great words of wisdom! Great in-sight!
As a new Grammy I thoroughly enjoyed Jamie’s no-nonsense style of writing. I really needed the new ideas, thoughts and suggestions that she presented in an oh-so realistic, down-to-earth and funny fashion. Great reading and I’ve already put much to good use.

Need to read for toddlers
This book is so easy to read and useful. It reminds you of things you already know but in a way that gives them gravity to your life. It provides shockingly relatable examples and easy to follow guidelines for managing them. It has been useful for my 4 and 2 year old.

Loved the book!, but...
I think it is too expensive. i really love the author and follow her podcasts, but imho, the book is great but a bit too expensice, so maybe not for every wallet

A must have for all modern day parents!
Jamie is my hero. I have read all her books and have used her potty training books to potty train my 2 year old and night train my 3 year old. Her advice on parenting is spot on! Plus, she ads value to the quality of time spent with each other and how I see myself as a person and a parent! She is more than a toddler expert; she is a life coach! Thanks you!!

Honest parenting advice ❤❤
I've been listening to Jamie'a podcast over the last few weeks, and felt my parenting was incomplete without her book. She is inspiring, and helps me feel like a human being. I'm halfway through her book and love her honesty. Please stay true to helping stuck mums like me ❤ you have truly helped open my eyes to being a better mum and I will always be grateful. Thank you

I love reading her books. They are so helpful but also so funny! And they are written like a normal person, not a stuffy doctor.
