Hello,
My 2.5 year old DD has hit onto some really annoying behaviour, she's started pooing in her knickers! She's been 100% potty trained for about 4 months. She took to it straight away and hasn't had any accidents for ages.
She's a clever wee girl though, and has started to poo in her knickers, for what I think, is attention. She has also started whining and having tantrums (well, she's had one). I've tried ignoring the behaviour and cleaning her up quietly, but to not a lot of joy. I really don't know whether I have the patience to continue to ignore it, I want to take some action to nip this in the bud.
I'm thinking of implementing a sticker reward chart for when she goes in the toilet (something that worked well in the early potty training days), and confiscating a toy for a day when she goes in her knickers.
Any thoughts or ideas? This new shock and awe tactic is working perfectly and pressing my buttons!!
Thank you!
