DS turned 3 in May, and since I teach school, I thought that the summer would be the perfect time for potty training. Unfortunately, it is taking longer that I had hoped. :-S If I take him to the potty every hour or so, he'll pee, no problem. But he won't come tell me when he has to go, so if no one takes him, he'll just pee himself. Also, #2's are the worst: He has pooped in the potty a few times, but usually that's if I catch him already starting in his pants. He likes to hide when he has to poop or stand in a way that I can tell means he's pooping. Since he won't initiate going to the toilet on his own, should I just back off, or is taking him every hour still the right thing to do? With DD it just clicked one day, and she never had another accident. . . I'm hoping that will happen with DS soon. We've offered him prizes for going on the potty and everything, so he'll do his thing & get his prize, but then next time he's pooping in his pants. Any feedback is appreciated!! View Thread
