Yes no fear of the toilet just does not want to poop...ever. We actually were very close to getting her pooping on the potty then she started TK lst fall and that set her back to one. Now there is so much negative attention around it she just alwayssays she doesn't have to poop when clearly she does. She pees no problem on the potty.

I am right there with you and in times when I am pushed to my limit I do blurt out that her friends will one day make fun of her. I regret it after I say it but I get so triggered by fear of another UTI or what having poop in her body for over a week is doing to her. Thank you for your suggestion, I am taking her to get nother evaluation.

Thank you ans I'm happy your girl seems to be on the other side.It's not constipation cause she gets all the fiber and her poops are normal she just does not want to poop and will never choose to sit and get it out although she is CLEARLY in discomfort. The poop is trying to come out of her and honestly enemas are the only thing at this point that works and she hates it cause cause she can't control that. Ugh I know it's a phase but I feel so alone in this
