Sounds like you are doing the right thing. (I'm taking notes as I have a 2 year old whom I fear could head in a similar direction!)<BR/>I hope she is able to finally poop without and intervention from Dad. (We call that a "code brown" around here)<BR/>Anyway, the only think I can add is to make sure that you absolutely make her understand that this is what happens when you decide to hold it in and not poopy!! That is the only think that has finally helped with our 2 yr old. She was holding it in and it was causing great pain and once we finally made her understand that her actions were causing this pain, she stopped holding it in. We are still working with it, but I hope that the worst of it is over.<BR/>Oh, one other thing, if she is still having physical trouble voiding, have her squat on the toilet instead of sitting on it. It changes the whole "tilt" of her bum and makes it a lot easier.<BR/>Hope that helps!!<BR/>Blessings~<BR/>Shelley<BR/>www.wildnoodles.blogspot.comShelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18218860243030634024noreply@blogger.com
