DS has been potty trained for almost 3 years & is in Y1 at school. Never been any problems with using the toilet/accidents.
In the last few weeks ds has started having accidents. He's leaving it too late before he goes, then he's running to the bathroom clutching his bum but by the time he's there its too late.
He has no health issues & we suspect it may be some sort of regression (he has a 14 month old sibling who is into everything so requiring a lot of attention at the moment). We are really not sure how to deal with this - we want to make sure he knows its not ok to keep doing this & that he needs to go as soon as he feels the urge rather than waiting til it comes & have said this repeatedly, but are getting concerned that if we give it too much attention he might do it all the more.
Any tips/advice on how to tackle this would be greatly appreciated!
