To throw DD(2) knickers away when she has an accident?

That's it in a nutshell.

She's 2 and 4 months, she initiated potty training a month ago so we went with it and she is broadly dry. However she has stopped doing poos on the potty and is doing them in her knickers 🤢

She seems to wait to do an enormous poo and it's often quite soft (she eats a lot of fruit) and it goes everywhere 🤢

I'm honestly sick of scooping sh*t out of tiny little knickers and then them still coming out stained from the wash. The pair today I put in a nappy bag, poo and all, and binned.

NB we do put her on potty routinely (going out potty, coming home potty, after dinner potty) but her poos have lost all routine (maybe she's withholding?!).

Am I being unreasonable?!!! And any advice?!!

Not unreasonable.

Try bribing her for successful pooping in the loo.

My DD had toilet issues and was still having daily poo accidents age 5. It's either the knickers or your mental health 👍👍👍

Jeez I don't know whether DS was pooing superglue or what, but holding the pants under the flush shifted precisely nothing. Unless it rolled out, I binned.

@GroovyChick87Our reusables don’t have any throw away bits at all. Everything gets washed.
