Any suggestions?
My first one is going through it right now also.

I have to tell you... I didn't take this advice so I don't know if it works or not, but here's what was suggested to me :

Spend an entire day in the bathroom with them. If your child is a boy, dad will spend the day with him. If your child is a girl, mom will get the pleasure of a day in the bathroom. For the entire day you will not leave the bathroom so bring whatever you need inside.

Every time you have to go, explain to the child what you're doing. Ask them to go every xx number of minutes. Over exaggerate the praise when they do go.

The lady that recommended this claimed to have potty trained her child in one day. I didn't want to spend the entire day in the bathroom so I didn't try it so I can't tell you that it works from experience. Sounds logical, though.
