Hi, my daughter seems to have no control of her bowels, she soils herself sometimes several times a day. She hates being cleaned and it is becomming extreamly hard to clean her privates when she refuses to open her legs. I have to try to hold her legs open, kepp her hands out the way and clean her all at the same time, while she's screaming her head off. [aaagh]
I've tried asking her to do it but she either refuses point blank, or just wipes the front very quickly.
She's had a UTI recently, probubly due to infection. She has a bath every night, but she's still getting sore.
This is turning in to such a battle, and I'm not sure what to do. She is getting stronger all the time and showing no sign of improvement in toilet training.
I'd be really greatful for any ideas or advice, thanks.
