Any advise for me on a 4yr old that was using the bathroom on his own VERY WELL and since he found out he is going to be a big brother again he has regressed. HELP???
It's not unusual for kids to do this when a major change is going on in their life. I agree with what this Dr advises http://yourparentingsolutions.com/_webapp_916431/4_Year_Old_Potty_Training_Setbacks
IE not whipping or punishing- being laid back / matter of fact about it. You didn't say which kind of accidents he's having... if it's just one or the other. If it is just urine accidents he *might* have a urinary tract infection that you could take him to the Dr to get checked out. If it is just BM accidents, pray he doesn't have encopresis which while treatable can be recurring. If he's having both kind of accidents it's probably emotional.
Since it is so hot outside, I've been taking my son to indoor play areas- mainly at chick-fil-a and Mcdonalds by the mall. When it's not scorching, he likes to go to the parks around town- Attalla and Hasting Park in Gadsden are his favorites.
I like to take him to the water fountain thing next to the river by Chili's.
