Omg im going through this too! My first born did it too!! (Eventually it passed with my eldest) Im literally at my whits end with it! She is perfect with wees no accidents at all, with poop she runs around screaming and crying obviously needing a poop! Refuses to sit on the potty or toilet! Then the feeling passes and she ends up doing it in her sleep 😩🙈🙈🙈
My little girl hates pooping! She’s holding it for days then having an accident (or rarely on the toilet) and is heartbroken whenever she goes. She’s saying she has tummy ache a lot but just really needs a poo 🤦♀️
It’s so tough especially because this is all an emotional/mental thing. I read somewhere it’s like if you’re child thought there was monsters under their bed - what would u do and how would u handle that? This is similar. So i’ve had to do a lot of talking a lot of encouragement and reassuring etc. and then positive reinforcement when he does finally poo in toilet.
I’ve had this type of regression a couple times now unfortunately and it takes about a week for my LO to get back to normal. For us it has defo been an outcome of one slightly tougher poo which has led to him being scared, doing little bits in pants etc. my LO tends to have an upset tummy a lot anyways due to allergies and stuff so he is on cosmocol (laxative) so i’ll usually up his dose during this time to make his poo reeeaally easy to come out abd then its just a mental thing. A lot of well dones and u can do it and im so proud of u and we have to usually revert back to sticker rewards and stuff. Very tiring but like i said he ends up being back to normal in a week
