My DS will be 3 in June and we decided to use the lockdown as an opportunity to crack potty training. We had a disastrous first week but since then it has been okay although I still question whether he knows when he needs to go. We’ve been doing it since the start so over 3 weeks now. Last week we noticed that he had a small haemorrhoid. We thought it may be due to spending too much time on the potty (as he would often sit on it fir a while) so we encouraged him to get up quicker when he’s finished. It did go away for a few days but the last couple of days he seems to be quite constipated and is pooing frequently throughout the day and it has reappeared again. He is always proud of himself when he does a poo on the potty and therefore likes to really try for a poo and strains quite a bit. His diet is good and he never suffered with this before potty training. I wonder if it something to do with the position he is now sitting in to go for a poo, when in nappies he was almost always standing. It does not seem to be causing him any pain or discomfort and I am scared to take him to GP with everything going on. Has anyone else experienced this and if so any recommendations? I am worried about it getting worse and causing him pain. Thank you in advance.
