[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here with an update.

We were able to get an appointment with our doctor in September. Doctor advised us to try Miralax and heard my concerns about ADHD.

It turns out that it was 100% behavioral. After the accidents continued, we told him that he would not be able to take part in a weekly activity that he looks forward to all week long if he has any accidents during the week. Pooping in the pants stopped immediately. He just didn’t prioritize using the bathroom over whatever he was hyper focused on at the moment.

We checked in with the doctor during his December well visit. We found a therapist in January who immediately diagnosed ADHD based on assessments from school and home, as well as interactions with my son.

Therapy is helping, we are starting the medication journey now. [/quote]

That's good, but he might just start hiding it form you, especially if he is washing his own undies. Washing my own and making my parents think I had stopped is exactly what I did.  [/quote]
