Am I doing this right? Can I have some advice please?

I am currently trying to potty train DS 2.6.

He is perfectly clean and dry when he isn't wearing anything but as soon as we put pants and trousers on him it's a different matter. It seems like he holds it for too long and then cant't physically hold it any longer. He will wet a bit in his trousers and then stop and go on his potty.

At the moment I am praising him when he uses the potty and he loves flushing the contents down the loo and saying bye bye. When he has an accident I put clean clothes on him and say that he should've told me he needed a wee wee so he could use his potty.

How do I get him to go more often, when I ask if he needs to sit on the potty he tells me no.

I really don't have a clue about potty training!

rather than asking him if he needs the toilet just tell him you are going to the potty/toilet at regular intervals so something like 'come on it's time to do a wee wee - who's going to get there first?' (ds likes being the winner so this works for us!)

DS went through a short period of dribbling in his pants but after a while managed to hold it in longer and wouldnt dribble before realising he needed to go to the toilet. I never did the naked from the waist down thing as it means you need to reteach them with their clothes on

Thank you

I managed to persuade him to sit on the potty a couple of times earlier so we haven't had anymore accidents today
