Hello :)
Could do with others' perspective on this.
DD (2.7) has been potty training for 4 months and has been dry from day 1, but will avoid pooing at all costs.
We've been referred to a 'poo doctor' who prescribed increasing doses of senna to disable DD's poo witholding ability.
It's not really working :( We are up to 25ml per day and she can still hold on to the feckers!
Every day is blighted by DD screaming, dancing and holding on, waiting around for her to poo and generally being on edge and ultimately dealing with VERY messy & runny senna - induced poos. Grim.
The poo doc keeps saying increase, but I'm not sure this is working for us. We're also getting the patronising 'blow bubbles on the toilet' advice, but we are WAY beyond that.
I have tried EVERYTHING :(
Anyone else have experience of this?
