Potty Training

So we started potty training in January  (a month before Miles 2nd Birthday) I do not need two in diapers. One shitty diaper is enough for this lady. He has been doing do great. But lately there has been a little struggle. Monday at school he had 3 accidents, but then yesterday none. Sometime he will just look at you and pee, and then say uh-oh MaMa. Or just be silent about it, then run to the bathroom. So my amazing husband tells me he is going to buy pull ups. I refuse, to me this is like telling Miles its ok to pee in a diaper. My husband says Pull ups are like underwear. Thoughts? I disagree, I think they are a overpriced diaper sealed on the sides. I feel that if I put him in these, even at night its like telling him it is ok to pee in your pants. I would rather wake up every hour in the night when he calls for us that he has to pee then let him pee in those. Yes I m being woken up thru out the night to help him pee, the poor little guy cant get his pants/undies over his cute little tushie. I actually had his daycare teacher ask me yesterday if I pull his pants down for him. I said well "yes, of coarse I do or he would pee all over". She just shook her head, and says thats why he is having accidents at school. He goes to the toilet when the other kids do and he stands there fully clothed and pees. Great, so I get a Ah-Ha moment yesterday, this is all my fault. Because I baby him he is being a typical man letting the woman do all the work. He knows he can just stand there and mommy will pull down his pants. So from today forward my goal is to teach this little man to pull his own pants down. I honestly think this will help, if at all he thinks we are distracted and he needs to go he is going to go, if he can pull down his own pants this leaves no excuse:) So wish me luck
