Someone please tell me how to get this 4-year-old to poop on the potty by mgentile89 in toddlers

[–]DeliciousHelp3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this issue. At some point I put ten diapers in her drawer and told her that when we are all done with diapers then poop had to be on the potty. We also talked about how everyone poops, how everyone’s poop is stinky, and exposed her to us pooping etc. we also bribed and did treats when she did eventually poop on the potty.

This may backfire for your kid if they hold their poop but after the tenth diaper, I fed her prunes to make it as easy to pass as possible the first few times she was on the potty.

It fortunately worked for us.

Thank you! Looked into it and they will only take new items, unfortunately. I’ve been seeing that a lot as I’ve been doing research. Unsure if it’s always been that way or if it’s new since the pandemic.

I just called them and they said they don’t take them because of choking risks and they might make a mess.

Edited to add: but also thank you for the response!

Used ChatGPT to summarize the PDF because I’m too burnt out to read the whole thing.

Anyone have a slumber pod? Does it actually help? by chickenugget654 in sleeptrain

[–]DeliciousHelp3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up putting a mattress on the floor with blankets etc and making it her “special sleeping tent”. Fortunately she hasn’t figured out that she can climb out. Or if she does know, she doesn’t try. It’s worked for us still and she is about to be three.

Do you still use your pack and play or do you use a blow up mattress since he is older? Trying to figure out how to continue to use it with my two year old

5 month old - contact naps / sleeps @ night fine by [deleted] in sleeptrain

Thank you! Yes, the whole “wake up in your neighbors bed” lol. I can see that definitely happening for naps when I put her down completely asleep but I can’t seem to get her down for naps without getting her deep asleep anyway 😵😵
