You're talking about potty training. Each child is different, but yours is a bit young to get up on a toilet at 3 months. Here's more info: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/infant-and-toddler-health/in-depth/potty-training/art-20045230

The first thing is to stop giving him suppositories or otherwise making him go. Breast fed babies may naturally go every feed or once every 7-10 days. You have not posted enough information about feeds or other symptoms to provide a more reasoned answer.
