Product Information

The only other similar type of expulsion is blood/bleeding, which is of course a very negative thing for a child (pain, hurt).

Those people who have their kids trained super early are able to do it because their kids aren't in that more self-aware stage that yours is in at nearly two. My daughter almost fell in the big toilet once, and then for months refused to sit on the big toilet. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.I managed to completely catch her first pooh, and she screamed while I was doing it, but then seemed pleased after it was done and talked about it later with what seemed like pride.

She is happy and well-adjusted, not in any way disturbed or strange, mostly loves life, gets along well with other kids, fairly independent, capable with lots of things, blah blah blah. And I tried everything, the books, the movies, forcing her to sit, bribes, positive praise, and you know what I got? Instead of participating in that fight, by putting her on the potty, instead encourage her to use it but be OK if she does not. My older daughter was out of diapers before she was three during the whole day, and used the potty to pee in. I talked to her for a while to find out WHY she was terrified of pooping, and it turns out she didn't know what happens to the poop when it goes in the potty.

I had huge success with a couple of my kids by suggesting that they show [favorite toy] how big kids use the potty.

Sure enough, a week or two after he turned 3 he started peeing AND pooing in the toilet and it was pretty much a nonevent. As parents, we can get so wrapped up in the whole potty process it's easy to sort of lose perspective on the whole thing (I know, I was one of those parents). If it were my child, I would back way off, leave the potty as an option only if it were her idea, go back to using diapers and try again a little further down the road. Having to be aware of what is going on in your digestive tract, get to a potty on time, get undressed, sit, redressed, etc. Many of the four year olds aren't able to hold it for any length of time, and the idea of going before you really need to doesn't always work for them.A kid who refused to poop for so long that she pooped out a monstrosity of constipation after ten days of holding out. Sounds like she already tried that today and failed, but with practice and enough motivation, fear or stubbornness, she will get the hang of it.
