My 3yr old - poo's on the potty.

Hello mummies,
I have recently potty trained my 3 year old little girl and we don't have accidents anymore but when it comes to pooing she is clearly holding her Poo in. To me she has perfect control over her bowel movement and is not wanting to poo at all. In the week she did a poo on the potty without a problem bit for the past 3 days has refused to do one.
She wears a pull up at bed time but doesn't do it in there.
Her father and myself are coming to blows about potty training her. It's like his easy way out is always the nappies but Am like no.

One of my GDs was doing the same thing. Although she was dry in the day she was waiting for the nappy to go on at night and then pooing in it.
My DIL didnt bat an eyelid and just changed her before they went to to bed themselves.
After about six or so weeks of this, she suddenly started going on the toilet.
What you do about it depends on your patience and philosophy .
It certainly isn't an unknown potty situation though.
