Son poop on diaper and throw it on the floor...

[cw30000]

Is son more difficult to potty train? A search on the internet and see many story similar to mine.

Here is my story. My son is 2 years old and he refusse to sit on the toilet. When he is done pooping in his diaper, he take off his diaper and throw it on the floor, put his pant back on like nothing has happened. We only find out when we realized his diaper is gone or smell/see the poop.

Another difficulty I have with him is he is not talking. He has less than 10 words. NO is like the word that coming out of his mouth 90% of the time.

For those has similar experience, what kind of tips can you give me? Or I simply have to wait it out?

Thanks.

lol. Sorry but I had a similar situation. My son also wasn't eager to learn that potty business. He also didn't speak until he was 3. No real reason he said a few words before hand, but nothing much.

All of a sudden he began speaking in major sentences, constantly. He never stopped talking since!! I'm not sure if it was because I did everything for him lol lol or if he was just lazy.

As far as the potty goes, believe it or not eventually he will use it, or let him use the toilet. Sometimes that works. You can have a step going up to the big bowl and a safety seat on it as well so he won't fall in. Sometimes they feel like "Big" kids. BUT.....

Generally 2 yr olds just do as they please!!! lol lol That was my favorite age I think I laughed my head off with my son when he was two!

I wouldn't worry about it or make a big deal though because 2 yr olds just don't care much about what other people think !!! lol

I kind of agree with NancyM. Some two year olds just aren't ready. If he's still giving you a lot of trouble and not seeming to get the concept, I would wait until he was three-ish and then try again. For some kids, three is just the prime age for potty training. Don't worry too much about it! He's still pretty young.

One thing that helped with my son was that I made a big poster and bought different kinds of stickers and I hung it in the bathroom. Every time he went in the potty like he was supposed to, he got to pick any sticker he wanted and put it on the poster. It helped a ton!

Felix is just starting to toilet train, i have him in pull ups. he sort of gets it but i can see it will be a long road before he really understands it and does it. he will wee on the toilet but not poo and he doesn't like to press the button. he hates the potty and won't use it at all.

samoajoe - I'm pretty sure that's what she's trying to do.

As far as the potty thing, a lot of boys arent really ready at 2, especially if he recently turned 2. But the language, you should talk to his doctor about. I know a lot of kids that don't talk and then suddenly have a language explosion, but it can also be a sign of other things such as a hearing impairment. Bring up the language to your pediatrician and ask if he should be screened. Best of luck!

My boy (7 now) was slow on both counts. His little sister was talking sentences at 18 months but he was slower to start. I don't remember exactly when but the potty thing was a struggle with him too. He was into his 4th year before he decided he wanted to stay clean and get out of diapers.

He is now in 2nd grade and though he has a tough time paying attention he is extremely smart and excels at reading. Go figure.

Our little girl was also quick on the potty training. She is completely different in so many ways.

I have a nephew that is 3 who is still not wanting to potty train and he takes his diaper off when he poops it. it is not a fun thing but it is "normal" for some I guess. they will be more likely to take it off I think if you make too big a deal of things so I think the best is to just give them the option and let them decide when they are going to take that step and don't get upset with them at all if they mess their diaper.

Give him some time, he is only 2. Why dont you wait another few months?

I agree that forcing it can end up making potty training harder in the long run. Regarding throwing the dirty diaper on the floor, try having him help clean up the diaper when you find it. It might deter him from taking it off and throwing it on the floor, and also possibly teach him to throw it in the diaper geine, or whatever you use when you toss dirty diapers.

I have an article on potty training on my new parenting website called YikeDat (dot com). Check it out.

It sounds to me like your son isn't quite ready to potty or speak, remember this is just an opinion..

But my son wasn't ready to use the potty until he turned 4, no matter what we did he just would not do it. He also wouldn't talk until he was around three, not that he couldn't.. he just didn't want to.

Looks like your son is just trying to avoid being taken to the potty lol, kids can be really sneaky!

Because he is taking out his poop, you could always show him where the poop goes when you put it in the potty, kids love to watch toilets flush xD especially if you let him be the big boy and flush it! It might even give him the idea to try using the potty!

As to the speaking NO is a VERY common word, I would really just reccommend you keep talking to him using descriptive sentences in response to what he says. ex: your son says "truck" you would say "Do you see a big dump truck?"

It expands his vocabulary a bit and also opens responses to your questions. He may not grasp it at the start but eventually he might start talking more.

All kids are different, if you are really concerned talk your pediatrician to rule out any possible hearing problems. If your son is cleared with good hearing, then he's most likely just a quiet boy

I hope this helps, and cross my fingers that no more poop touches your floors! lmbo!

There certainly is a lot to learn when you're 2! We often see kiddies who are slower to train if they don't have the language to support that big step to the toilet. Maybe relax a bit with the training and see if you can encourage the talking. We suggest to parents we work with to cut down the length of their sentences to only 1 or 2 words, so the child can attempt to copy at least one word. eg Instead of saying 'Now its time to get into the car to go shopping.', just say eg "go car". Often children understand long sentences but dont say much themselves, cos they'e not sure what to copy. Also you might like to get him checked by a speech pathologist as we specialise in language development. Paediatricians are great for more general developmental issues. Speech pathologists will tell you that, by 2, children should be saying at least 30 single words, mainly the names of things and some action words eg drink, cup, go, fall, no (that's a favourite!)
Good luck. Keep us posted.
