[quote=Anonymous]OP, nothing but compassion here -- and one suggestion: have you asked your DS why he won't poop? Is he nervous? Have you tried showing him that, for example, you have 10 pull-ups left, and then calmly explaining that you won't be buying any diapers after that, but you're excited because DS will get [insert prize of choice here]. As you get closer to the end of that 10 (or however many) pull-ups, remind him that there are X number of pull-ups left, and that you know he's going to do great and is going to have so much fun with [whatever prize]. I have an anxious child who was also late to be potty trained. I wasn't comfortable with the idea of giving my DS a miralax (although I can absolutely see how that would work for others -- and it may work for your son). Good luck, OP![/quote]
