My heart goes out to you. We have struggled with poop witholding with our 3.5yo DS. He constipates himself because he does not want to go. I thought we'd conquered it, because he hasnt done it for a few months, but this last week he...

I would say its pretty normal. My 3.5 yr old has been pretty much exclusively playing with his angry bird toys for about 6 months now. His other toys are not getting used, but I figure he will probably play with them eventually, and...

Nettles tea and bone broths help me a lot. I am nursing my 3 yr old DS, and he is a heavy nurser! I agree with lots of PP too, especially the B vitamins. Good luck Mama :)  

This makes me think of something a Mama friend of mine said once. She says she imagines her kids have a 'love tank', and that when their tank is running 'low', thats when she notices that they are acting out, are out of sorts, or that...

I've been reading up a lot on poop witholding and late PLing because we are struggling with both, and I read somewhere that at this age (my DS is also 3) the poop should be similar to the consistency of hummus. HTH.  

My son will be 3yo this month, and he is not even a tiny bit interested in using either his potty, or the toilet. I guess I'm looking for "BTDT and it worked out fine" stories, advice or ideas.   Heres a little background...
