My 2 1/2 year old is obsessed with taking off her diaper and playing in her own poo. I've tried and tried to work on potty training but she fights my efforts. Hard. I tried cold showers, spanking, and just about every other thing I could think of. Now she has a baby brother and she takes off his diaper every chance she gets. Help! Ideas? Am I completely alone in this problem???
Re: Playing chimp in a bad way...
DD2 was doing so well with the potty training but after she found out we were having another baby she started fighting it. I just stopped training her, one day she'll be sick and tired of sitting in her own pee n poop. It was incredibly frustrating for us b/c dd1 was trained right before she turned 2, and of course we get "she's not trained yet?!?!?" from all the family. Honestly I don't care what they say. Baby brother is due in two weeks and I don't want her having a further set back or acting out anymore than she already is. I would just let your dd be and give her a break.
How old is her brother?
