it's frustrating when kids regress, I know. My DD was nearly trained when I had my 2nd baby and suddenly she wanted nothing to do with the potty. In our case when she started to show interest again, it was the other way around- she would only poop but never peed on the potty. I had to break out the rewards again. I did my best not to embarrass her for accidents or overreact- I don't know if it really does emotional harm but I always felt kind of bad afterward, because they are just little kids. I suggest reinstating your rewards system- if you have not already done away with it. We went through several different things- stickers, then sprinkles, then chocolate chips (2 or 3) then finally jelly bellies (2 or 3). When I started to give her sweets it was kind of good in a way because that also got her used to brushing her teeth. Anyway she will be 3 in exactly one month and has been out of diapers for about 2 months now. I no longer have to give her any incentives. Good luck.

This isn't that uncommon, just try not to make it a big deal and it will more than likely resolve itself. The only other suggestion is, don't be so quick to change him out of the dirty undies, I'm not saying make him wear them for an extended amount of time, maybe 15 minuets or so, if he is uncomfortable with the dirty undies it may just pursued him to go back to the potty chair. Good luck!

All good suggestions. Yet another reason may be fear. I heard of one child who was actually afraid to poop on the toliet - someone made out like it was a monster. Not saying this is your problem - just think about whether there might be any catalyst recently to make him leary of putting poop in the toliet (does it look scary to him? kids have different reasoning than us sometimes!)

same thing with my daughter went for a pee ok but when it came to number 2 it was in her pants until i figured it out. I was always with her in the loo to make sure she was ok, but that was the problem "I was in there too" so after she sat on the loo I would go out saying I would be back in a moment and hey presto she pooped. privacy was all it needed for her to feel comfortable to let out the little nuggets. If you think about it how hard would it be for you to poo with people around. good luck with it all

sounds such as you probably did a stable activity of coaching him to potty interior the bathroom. As an person we are able to understand that throughout the time of an emergency it truly is ok to do something diverse, yet undergo in innovations as a three 365 days previous he does not yet have that psychological skill. are you able to go away a cup, a potty, or perchance only a bathroom seat someplace on the course which you many times take? in step with risk he may be extra mushy with that. are you able to "borrow" a male man or woman to "instruct" him? regrettably your son is attempting to be "vast" and shop on with the regulations that he has linked with the potty (i.e. once you could desire to bypass, you bypass interior the potty). injuries take place to all 3 365 days olds, yet in step with risk in case you get him to bypass suitable in the previous you go away on your walks, or decrease your walks (in case you could - you didnt say in case you have been strolling or relaxing or strolling considering which you could desire to bypass someplace) to an volume of time that he can carry it - he wont have as many favourite injuries. Im useful you're doing the desirable you could, only you need to no longer scold him for injuries. which will only make it worse.

kids will toilet train in their own time when they are ready not when u are ready. and as for the pooping its normal when he is ready he will go do not force the issue. do not make a big deal about it as accidents happen when he does go praise him maybe offer a reward if he does a poop in the toilet if he was doing it b4

You are lucky. My son took alot longer. I think little boys get busy and they can't be bothered going to the potty. I think you can only remind them to go and praise them alot when they do use the potty.

You are handling it better than I did. My oldest would do it for the dumbest reasons (and there was always a reason), so I just freaked out on him about it. I yelled, "Ewww! Gross! I'm not cleaning that!" I made him clean it up, and took away the reason...i.e. if he did it b/c he was playing and didn't want to stop. Three days of BORING stuff. I would tell him each time he wanted to do something fun, "We can't do that, then you might poop your pants and that is soooo gross!" It stopped after the third time.

eww its horrible isnt it its not so bad changing the nappies but it seems to take forever to clean them when theyve poopt in the pants, i used to take them in the loo and take off the pants and drop it down the loo and like you say to him is fine he ll know he done wrong,when he next does one on the" BIG BOYS LOO",really play it clap,praise the works and he ll know he done good,good luck x

OKay. Let him try going poop outside.
