Almost 3Yo with Control Issues Related to Potty Training

Hello, I've never asked a question although I've responded to a few. My son will be 3 in Nov. A little background info: I started to potty train him quite a while ago. He will occasionally sit on the potty and sometimes tells me he wants to. Most times, he gets upset or tells me no and I have not pushed the issue. He has never actually gone in the potty and has asked me to show him how...I defered to my husband on that one! When I ask if he wants to use the potty, he usually tells me "so I can get m&m's?"

Is It an Allergy Rash, Hypersensitivity or What???

Hello ladies: I have a 61/2 mos old boy and I'm very concern. He has developed a terrible rash, on his little butt that at this point I'm not sure what it could be. It looks like he sat on a hot plate and got a serious burn. It mildly started about 2 mos ago and I took him to the pediatrician and she said to use hydrocortisone and if it continued she thought I would eventually either have to get a hypoallergenic diaper or use cloth diapers. I originally had some diaper changes and finally decided to go back to what he has been using since...
