General Information:
You dog is still a puppy ... and will behave like one ... at 3 to 4 months a pup will need to eliminate between 5 to 10 times a day (depending on individual pup & breed). Their urinary & digestive systems are still developing and pups do not have capacity to hold. No training is going to change this. The situation improves from 4 to 5 months on.
What you do need to get is a good training manual that teaches you (a) the characteristics of a pup, (b) the charateristics of your pup's breed, (b) basic training methods (for housetraining, teaching sit, stay and etc) ...
Do get a training manual: A good training manual is invaluable ... It will teach you much and you will start to feel more effective & motivated ... It will teach you how to communicate with & understand your dog ...
Working owner: For your situation particularly ... you need to consider the many and varied ways of handling/keeping safe your pup whilst you are at work. Confinement per se is not bad, provided it is done correctly with an understanding of dog nature (and handled from a dog's perspective) ... Working owners do face a different & particular set of demands and issues - including issues of housetraining and seperation anxiety ... which you ought to be aware of ...  ...
Cheers ... and all the best with your babie ...
