How to get ds2 NOT to poo in the toilet!

God, is it only 2 weeks since I asked how to get ds2 to poo in the toilet, instead of the potty.

Well, success turned to disaster, as he now squeezes out a poo EVERY TIME he goes to the toilet and not surprisingly he is starting to complain that his bottom is getting sore.

Anyone, please, can you help?

LOL,I'm amazed he can do this! Well actually my ds poos a lot so I can see how they can do it.
As for ways to solve it that wouldn't end up with him bunged up to the eyeballs I don't know.Could you teach him to wee standing up instead and hope he doesn't crap on the floor?!

LOL, my ds1 did this at first. I just kept reminding him that it was OK just to do a wee if he didn't need to poo. He got the message eventually!

Thanks.

He's fine doing wees standing up - he just figures that he might as well sit down and do a poo at the same time! I think I'll go with the gentle reminding gingernut (and hope he doesn't cr*p on the floor ggirl - lol)
