Hello
I'm having an awful time with my 4-year-old dd at the moment. She's been potty-trained during the day since a couple of months before her 3rd birthday and apart from a few problems while actually potty-training has always been fine doing her poos in the toilet/knowing when she needs to go etc. However, for about the last two weeks bits of very soft poo have been escaping without her seeming to know until it's happened. It's not a huge amount, but enough that it goes through onto her trousers and we are currently getting through about 5 or 6 pairs of knickers & trousers a day. I tried to be really nice about it at first but that didn't seem to get us anywhere so now I have been a bit firmer about the need to do it in the toilet, but I'm really worried that it's a health problem (in which case the latter approach would be entirely wrong) - has anyone heard of a problem like this before? We have a hospital appt. about a different problem but vaguely linked enough that I will be able to bring this up too, but I don't want to wait that long. Has anyone got any advice/experience of this? Thanks in advance x
