Answer 1

Yep,I know the feeling! Ok well here's what I did with mine. I would sit her on the potty and litterally have to wait and wait,but after waiting for what seemed like forever,I heard her pee just a little. And when she did,I petted her and said what good girl she was,I think I even gave her a snack for doing it. So when you have time,sit him on the potty and just wait for it,when he finaly does,act like its the best thing that's ever happened and he will want to do it more! Maybe that might help,its what I had to do =)

Answer 2

I would honestly wait awhile. My son turned 3 right before his sister was born, and even though I was desperate to get him trained, I also knew that he could regress with a new sibling in the house. The stress of trying to use the potty, and then the stress of a new baby 'taking over' - even if you did get success in the weeks to come, it might all fall apart during the early months of the new baby being here, and you will be to tired and stressed to want to focus on potty training. I started working with my son again when the baby was about 6 months old. It was less stressful for him - and he was older (boys can tend to potty train later than girls). And it was less stressful on me, cause I wasn't in the midst of pregnancy or a newborn. Double diaper duty isn't fun, but neither is cleaning up wet or poopy underwear from numerous accidents.  

Answer 3

Potty training...... wow. Watching every one around me force their kids into potty training, it only makes them wet the bed longer than normal. If you was to let him be, go when he's ready, he'll be fine. To speedy up the process though, you can try having him go when you or daddy goes; better daddy. And when he does go, make a big deal out of it. Let him know that your proud of him and give him a little extra snack. Kids love encouragement.
