WEE TRAINED BUT NOT POO TRAINED! HELP?

Hi, I have a little girl who turned 2 this week! Where has the time gone? She is wee trained - no nappy at night either but still continues to poo in her knickers or pulls her knickers off and poos on the floor! Lucky this only happens once a day on average and not several times a day! Does anyone know if this stops soon or has had this happen to one of their kids? Is there any little tricks I can try? All ideas would be appreciated! Thanks

Try lollies. I know it's not PC but it worked for me. My son looks at me with disgust when I try a star chart but responds very well to a jelly bean. And counting. Pop her on the toilet and tell her to guess which number the pooh will come out on and then start counting slowly. Or Sing to her while your waiting. Sometimes it takes a while! You can usually tell when they need to go because (excuse the graphic explaination) they start farting a lot! As soon as you smell it, pop her on the loo. good luck! and remember, it won't happen overnight but it will happen! There's no rush.

WEE TRAINED BUT NOT POO TRAINED! HELP?

Hi , it will stop eventually. My daughter at the same age was toilet trained and went through the day and night with no nappie, but when she wanted to do a poo she asked for a nappie. I tried everything to get her to go in the potty but she wouldnt budge, she even made her self constipated holding it in. My advice is to let her go at her own pace, buy the cheapest nappies you can and ask her to tell you when she wants to do a poo and put the nappie on her. This will help her understand the feeling of wanting to do a poo, and when she done empty the nappie into the toilet and press the button, let her watch you and tell her when she does a poo in the potty she can press the button. I did all of the above and by the time my dd was two and a half we were clean and nappie free.

Good Luck with it all, hope this helps.

Hi, have you try to explain to her that poo is dirty and has to go to toilet? It may take awhile for little one to understand. But if you keep telling her that poo is yucky and tell her that she should do the poo in the potty/toilet, hopefully she will get the idea and will do it.

I did this to my son when he was 2, and it worked for me. Lucky also that he didn't like having poo in his pants.

I'm not up to toilet training with my daughter yet but my sisters both used star charts with their children.

Every time they did a poo in the potty or on the toilet they got a sticker for their chart (a piece of cardboard with a grid drawn on it).

When they got 10 stickers they got a surprise (one got a new pair of undies with Barbie on them, another got a face washer. It doesn't have to be expensive). Keep the chart going for a few pressies till she doesn't need it any more and then she can graduate toilet training.

It's important not to make you child feel bad if she has an accident. be possitive and reinforce how good it is when she does her poo in the right place. Make a really big deal of it, ring Daddy or Grandma.

I've had many exciting poo poo on the toilet phone calls.

A friend's daughter was doing the same, doing her poos on her bed. The only thing that worked for them was to give her a good smack on the butt when she did it.

Hi, we have started to not smack her as she started smacking us and other kids - I think because we were giving her to odd smack she felt that this sort of thing was ok for her to do to others as well! The whole parenting thing is very tricky - the hardest thing I have ever done in my life- harder than giving birth thats for sure!!!!! I'm sure a lot of others would agree!! lol
