My 4.4 son was not quick to potty train having no desire to stop what he is doing to go to the potty/loo. Finally we sorted wees out and usually they are not a problem but poos are getting worse and worse.
I think he is withholding but is not like the classic witholders who can keep it in for days...instead he does 6 or more little teeny (But smelly) poos a day.
He will not tell us when they are coming but if we are nearby, it is obvious because of his posture and we drag him to the loo and sometimes get a little in but usually there is some in his pants. If we miss it, there is usually a small amount in his pants.
He never seems to do a full size poo except occasionally of he is wearing a nappy at night.
We have tried
Prune juice
Rewards
Treats
Regular loo sitting and blowing bubbles
Have read Anthony cohn.
