Xpost: Poop help?

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months
DD is 18 months and has been using her potty sporadically since 6 months. In the last few weeks we decided she was ready to start PT.
We did the 3 day method and it was super easy. She doesn't wear pants at home anymore and always uses the potty to pee with no accidents.
But poop! Poop is a different story. She will stop wherever she is and poop and the floor and then point at it and say "uh oh". I am trying to stop her and move her to the potty, but she is always done by the time I get to her.
Any tips on making the poop goes in the potty connection?

    Well i have never heard of a six month old using a potty, so i don't know how to address this. But...if your kid is pooping on the floor, I would suggest she isn't ready yet, and put a diaper on her. I'll be darned if anyone poops on my floor. We are working on potty training with our 22 month old, but its not smart to rush it.

    6 months?! wow! DD is 14 months and hasn't shown any interest yet.

    Maybe use a pull up during the day- she can still use the potty to pee and if/when she does poop it goes in there and not on the floor or in her underwear.

    Maybe you would have more luck getting some responses on the AP board. There might be some Elimination Communication parents with ideas.
