Our stand-off ended in a suppository and her reaction was awful and she screamed bloody murder and i should hope to never do that again. <BR/><BR/>I guess we'll just see what happens. I am willing to accept her in diapers for another year, if that's what she needs. I just don't want to be chasing the constipation/impaction route so many parents have to do.LissyJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08623792539934757817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862896671658393749.post-46517825405211765882007-10-18T16:58:00.000-07:002007-10-18T16:58:00.000-07:00We had one face-off about a month and a half ago, ...We had one face-off about a month and a half ago, somehow related to a botched attempt to respond to her apparent interest in potty training, and it only ended with a glycerine - not suppository, exactly, but this applicator thing that you use to put the glycerine directly in the butt. The package said that it could take from 15 min. to an hour to work; it took maybe three minutes and then she got to work.<BR/><BR/>My niece has been on a laxative for over a year now, and we really, really didn't want to have to go there. Happily, MM was pretty much unfazed by the glycerine thing, and has been pooping without incident ever since. In the meantime, she's been on a banana embargo and I've been pushing liquids a bit more than I used to. If you get to that point, I'd definitely recommend the stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862896671658393749.post-58324980505507775232007-10-16T17:01:00.000-07:002007-10-16T17:01:00.000-07:00Have you seen anyone get married in dippers?

Then you hope it is many years before they even have a dirty dipper. One who knows from experience.

LN was lot more eager to use the potty last year than she is this year... makes me wonder if I did indeed miss that window of opportunity. Now, she tells me she's going in her diaper and demand to be changed right away but won't bother asking for her potty. It doesn't help having a hubby who thinks this will either magically happen or his wife will take care of it like all the other things.<BR/>The one thing that helps me cope with the stress is that, as far as I know, most kids are potty trained by the age of 15... so it should happen some day. <BR/>Hmmm, interesting tidbit from anonymous. :-)Mama Nabihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00873676249958692247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862896671658393749.post-4114936762002256792007-10-16T06:28:00.000-07:002007-10-16T06:28:00.000-07:00Doh, anonymous actually made me remember when you ...Doh, anonymous actually made me remember when you were in that stage...disturbing.Scooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07264667176243327560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862896671658393749.post-69922620013559716392007-10-15T16:47:00.000-07:002007-10-15T16:47:00.000-07:00I have a daughter who was young once and went thro...I have a daughter who was young once and went through this phase and yes it will pass!

It scared her from the beginning and still does to a certain extent. That's why I have to be her support emotionally and physically when she does doo doo still. That means I have to practically hug her while she's on the toilet, and I have to tell her it's ok, to relax, etc. But at least she poops on the toilet. ^^Pukahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281274575712381983noreply@blogger.com
