Holding onto poos

[Shannon]

We had the problem with one of the big girls (can't remember which one) where the splash was scary, and they get the splash up on their bottom and she was very tactile and didn't like that wet feeling on her butt. My mother actually made the splash into a game and she was allowed to yell as loud as she wanted "SPLASH", so she got over it because she ordinarily wasn't allowed to yell in the house LOL.

I hope it passes soon for you.

This sounds just like DD! Glad I am not the only one dealing with this, glad it will come with time, but it is frustrating!

Eden often suffered from constipation when he was younger so poos on the toilet were a BIG issue. Every time he did a poo on the toilet we would give him a sticker that went on a piece of paper on the fridge. After a while (probably a month) he was ok with doing poos and stopped asking for stickers.
