Just search "potty training" on his blog and you will see. <br /><br />We got some help with a Behaviourist and Miralax is now part of his daily diet. I still have to have those flushable wipes handy for wiping. Hang in there and I hope he makes that last step out of potty training.SoCo momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06690650885909492867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125513171911491572.post-38242431464588731372012-07-24T20:16:39.677-07:002012-07-24T20:16:39.677-07:00That is effing hilarious!

He would hold it as long as he could. When he was 4, he would go to preschool not have any accidents. He would come home, I would make him sit on the potty but nothing would come out so I would eventually let him get up. Then he would poop in his big boy underwear. It was usually a huge disgusting log, since he would hold it forever before letting it come out. Then it's almost impossible to get those underwear off without poop sliding everywhere and all down his legs. He did this every single day for a year. After nothing else worked, I eventually put him back into pull ups.Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02129510013013288458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125513171911491572.post-27774737931261737882012-07-24T15:55:12.470-07:002012-07-24T15:55:12.470-07:00Daughter walked out of the bathroom so proud, &quo...Daughter walked out of the bathroom so proud, "MAMA?
