DS is 4 in December. He’s been “trained” since last November: at first we had a number of accidents which I’d expected of course but nearly a year later and accidents are still pretty much a daily feature of our lives. Sometimes he will go a day without but then other days he will have two or three so it probably all balances out.
The big problem is that he just won’t articulate a need to go - will just do it in his pants without being told to go. Obviously with wee we can mostly preempt that but not always and poo is a nightmare.
As the months go by the hope of him self instigating ‘I need a wee’ or going himself or fading and I am a bit worried about how this might impact him at school, although it’s a year off.
We also aren’t even close to being dry at night. I know that’s hormonal and wouldn’t worry me if it wasn’t for the fact day time is still very hit and miss.
Has anyone else come through this? I feel a bit alone and in all honesty embarrassed as most children DS’s age I know are very reliable and independent with toileting matters.
