Q.

#asktheexperts My little daughter is 4yrs and 3 months old. How to encourage her to pass stools in potty. I have tried for more than a year but she refuses. I've tried giving rewards also to encourage her but hasn't worked. She has been using potty for pass urine for almost 1yr. She still demands diaper for passing stools.
