potty training
hi, potty training forum seems quite quiet so I thought i'd post in here.
we are potty training our DD. She has now been dry for three days. She will not however poo on the potty or loo. she tells us she needs to go, sits on loo, then says it is staying in her tummy, then a little while later she comes to say she's done it in her pants...
not sure what to do - stickers and even offer of choc hasn't worked... any tips?

The only issue we have now is he will wee on the potty when he has no pants on but as soon as we put pants on him, he wees in them!
so today was another totally dry day - yey!
Now for a bit TMI....
Poo-ing wise, I kept reminding her, she ended up trying to poo for ages - we read a book, we blew bubbles and sang songs. She would get off the potty saying it was staying in her tummy then two mins later she'd say she needed a poo and would sit on potty again for ages... feel like we've been on the darn thing all day!
At one point she did a very small one so I praised her LOADS and she was really proud of herself, rang daddy and had a chocolate coin and a sticker.
Then she kept on trying all afternoon as she said there was more in her tummy, eventually it came out in her pants.... she got a bit upset (the other days she hasn't minded it was in her pants so is it a good thing she got upset as she knows it should go in the potty or is it a bad thing she got upset????)
I told her not to worry and that we will try again tomorrow, and I praised her for trying.
I hope I am doing this right? Maybe now she's done it once it may come out easier tomorrow? we will see.
Any more tips welcome xx
I am utterly excited she did it! She pooped on her potty!!!!
So pleased, maybe I was worrying too soon... I hope now she's done it once she'll do it again!
Day 5 of potty training and I think we've cracked it! fingers crossed x
spoke too soon - today she was amazing when we went out and had lots of wees on potty, then this pm had a wee in pants followed by poo in pants... then tonight back to wees on potty...
it is so confusing.... feels so frustrating and stressful when you know they can do it!
we'll get there, we are just giving LOADS of praise when she is successful and not making too much of a deal when accidents happen. hope that is right?
