My 3 1/2 year old daughter will not go poopy on the potty. We have tried all kinds of encouragement, even bribery/rewards. We keep her pull-up and underwear off for days (in loose fitting pants) but she just holds it.I could be wrong, but it concerns me that it isn't healthy for her to hold it so long.y 27 month old son goes to potty at home all the time and he doesn't wear diapers in the house day or night. However, he needs diaper in daycare for the nap. For a few months in a row before he went poop in potty, he cried when he had to go because he didn't want to go in diapers.

5 Comments. A parent brought up this common potty-training issue in the live parenting chat I do on STLToday: “My 3 1/2 year old son will urinate in the toilet but will not poop. We put a pull-up on him and THEN he goes.ctually, no. 3 1/2-year-olds have better things to do than poop. Not wanting to poop in the toilet is a very common problem. It’s rooted in attention span. Usually the child just doesn’t want to sit on the potty and wait for the poop to come out.

How do you get a 3 year old to poop in the toilet? My 3 year old son wears underwear and pees just fine in the toilet without accidents.BUT, when it comes to #2, he seems to wait a week and then drops the bomb in his Cars underwear...HELP!est Answer: Reward him for pooping in the toilet. I bought my son stickers and told him one for potty and two for poop and I let him decorate the toilet lid. It's pretty much his bathroom since my step-kids are adults now and have moved out so it's no biggy and they are easily removed later on.

My son is 3 1/2 years old and has been peeing on the potty for probably 9 months or so. He continues to poop in his Pull-up although he knows when he has to go as he goes and hides. He inconsistently will say “I pooped in my pants” but typically does not seem to have a care in the world.y son is 3 1/2 years old. He has been peeing in the potty for a year now consistently with no accidents, but still will not poop in the potty. I have read through all of your responses and none of them help because I’ve tried them ALL! I tried a chart, but that doesn’t work if he doesn’t even do it ONCE.

My son is almost 3 (33 months) and for the past few months, he has been holding his poop in, to the point that he won't go for many days a time.When this started, the doctor advised us to give him Miralax to make his stool softer so it comes out more easily.e picked up the potty training really quickly – for peeing – but he still holds his poop in no matter what. If he's sitting on the potty, as soon as he's about to do it, he stands up and just keeps holding it in (and once he starts to stand, if we even so much as ask him to sit back down, he screams and cries).

With that said we started potty training my son at 2 and he pees in the potty good, but won't poop in it. I am trying all kinds of things to get him to. He will be 3 in March and I hope to have it figured out before then.y 27 month old son goes to potty at home all the time and he doesn't wear diapers in the house day or night.
