I started potty training my nearly three year old boy months ago but due to having no patience whilst studying at college I gave up until this current half term where I thought I'd scrap the potty and go straight to the toilet with him as I'd have the time to crack on with it. After only a few days using the plastic child toilet seat, he was doing wees really well and I've been out and about with the seat and he happily goes for a wee using public toilets. My major problem now is that he won't do a poo! He really needs to go as he is clutching at his bottom and I have noticed poo smeared between his bum cheeks.. Since becoming that bit older he would go and hide to poo in his nappy but he won't stay on the toilet by himself and won't do it if I'm there.. He is saying his tummy hurts but I don't want to put a nappy on him just so he can poo as it kind of defeats the object. HELP!!!
