Toddler refuses to #2 in the potty. How long until she explodes? When should I worry?
We’re potty training our 3.5-year-old. She’s got #1 down but refuses to go #2. She waddles around a lot, says she has to go then gets distracted, says her butt or tummy hurts and then says she’s fine.
Last time we tried this, we went two and a half days before we gave up and diapered her again, when she promptly crapped several times.
She’s pretty stubborn. She knows how to potty at this point, she just doesn’t want to. How long can she hold it before it becomes a medical issue? What’s the best strategy here? Thanks
