Mom of a 6 yr 11 m old boy4 years ago
Q.

#AskTheExpert Hello Doctor, my son will turn 3 this September. He doesn't poop in sitting position and always avoids pooping. He holds pooping for 2-3 days also. We tried to make him sit when he gets into pressure but he refuses to sit and successfully holds poop. I am stressed how to make him sit for pooping and how to reduce feeling of disgusting when he poops. Please guide.

A. hi sorry for the above unfinished answer. I am using a seat which can be fixed to toilet commode. (picture attached below) keep a name for poop and used that when ever you take him to the toilet. reinforce him as soon as he finishes, or maybe let him do what he likes to do by letting him know why. Show him some of the rhymes relates to pooping. https://youtu.be/wWjl7-2pMmw ps: I have never used potty for my daughter. from the start I have taken her to toilet. so that we can skip the potty part. hope it's helpful one more thing him he is stopping poop. he might have having pain or something so you might need check on that too.

A. Hello, your baby boy is 3 years old and if he has not trained for potty yet then you should buy potty chair and then give him to use at fixed time
Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years ago
A. Potty Training can be started after the age of 2 yrs.for this you need to develop a conditioned reflex in the child by fixing a particular time regularly in which the childkk should be sitted over the potty seat .do not force the child instead make it a playful activity and not to make the child repulsive about it.slowly the child will learn to indicate before the time.
