Yes, I am STILL working on potty training. Sadly the next 2 kidlets are following their older brother who has sensory integration disorder. He will pee on the potty but will not poop. Although I have gotten him to the point where he will poop and then run to the bathroom. *sighs* I guess it is better than nothing.

We have talked to all his specialists and therapists and we are already trying all their suggestions. We even change the prizes up so it is different. We also have a chart. He just turned 5 and will be going into kindergarten this fall. PECS cards have helped with the peeing part but not with the poop.

I keep him in undies full time so not to confuse him.

Any ideas? We have been working on this for 2 1/2 years now (he was the one who initiated training).

I just seem stuck at the pooping in the potty stage.

that is a tough one. i know it is really common for some kids to not want to poop in the potty.

does he use the potty or a big toilet?
does he usually poop in his undies? one thing you can try do is, if he does poop in his undies is immediatedly put it in the toilet, so he sees that it belongs in the toilet. dont know if you have tried that.
