son keeps losing focus

Hi,

I really need some advice about my son's potty training.

He's been potty training for about 6 weeks and got number 1's pretty quick, although number 2's took a while longer. but just when he seems to have got it, he just stops!

the last 2 weeks he has got to 3 and then 4 completely dry days with everything going in the potty and even when out and about in shops etc. and then he just starts doing it in his pull ups/pants again!

We have been doing reward charts where the pirate/spaceman moves a space everytime he uses the potty and he get's a little poundland pressie when he get's to number 10 and then getting a sticker for every dry day with a pack of books as his present for getting 5 dry days in a row. he's fine for a few days but then seems to completely lose focus.

We've tried to take pressies away when he has accidents and it's worked on and off, but today i have resorted to taking all of the pressies away and stopping all TV time as after asking him if he needed a wee and he said no, he proceeded to stand and wee in his pants right in front of me!

Has any one else had this kind of problem...? or anyone with anything new to try?

Thanks!

Experiencing something similar here - waiting for the potty guru to come and solve all our problems. Hello...? Anyone out there? Is there a potty whisperer in our midst?
