Poop on the Potty!

On September 12th, Keira FINALLY went poop on the potty!  She's been potty trained for months, since right when we got back from Disney, as far as pee is concerned.  But, she continued to ask for a diaper when she had to poop.  I tried everything I knew, we read potty books and sat on the potty when she had to poop, I bribed her for trying and encouraged her to imagine her favorite things she might earn for pooping on the potty.  I rewarded sitting on the potty when she had to poop and I rewarded her for each toot.  But, nothing seemed to work.  Unfortunately, I think the fact that she is the second child influenced her delay.  She's been with and observed Elijah when he's had pooping issues, and I think it made her think pooping on the potty would hurt.  Again, our kids are overthinking things!  Amazingly, after a week of really trying every time she had to poop, the first poop was practically a non event.  I was on the phone with Grandpa Jan, I sent her in the bathroom with a few M&Ms to try and poop, while I prepared to get off the phone and sit with her.  Before I got off the phone, she yelled, "Mommy I poop-ed!"  I didn't really believe it, but sure enough she did!  Yay!  She chose a giant chocolate bunny for her reward (she only ate half).  She was very proud of herself as her smile shows.
