help & suggestions needed

[sloane]

If anyone can offer any suggestions, I'd appreciate it -

day 1 - 4 accidents & he pooed as soon as we put his night time nappy on
day 2 - 2 accidents (but i think he was holding on for most of the day)
day 3 - poo accident & 2 other accidents, 2 pees on the toilet
day 4 - poo accident, no accidents but no pees on the toilet (he was in a pull up for a couple of hours because he had his playball class & they were getting certificates, i didn't want him to miss out or have an accident mid-class). i think he did a big pee in the shower after dinner. he'd had heaps to drink in the late afternoon/early evening/

at first he was resistant to the undies but doesn't seem to mind now. when he pooed in the undies on day 2 i heard an 'oh no' and then smelt it. on day 3 i could smell something & then he started down the hallway but i heard him say 'too late'.

i'm hoping these are all positive signs - while i don't want him holding pee in, i'm guessing it's good to know that he has good bladder control. he also seems to know when he's pooing so hopefully he'll recognise the signs it's coming soon.

is it 'normal' (i know they're all different) for them to not be actually using the toilet much? i know it probably wasn't ideal that he wore a pull up yesterday for a bit but he pooed in it & asked to be changed straight away.

i guess i just have no idea how long the process might take - not that i want to rush him, just i have no idea what to expect at all. the twice he's peed in the toilet has been after our suggestion he go. he's asked to use the toilet a few times but no success on those occasions.
