Some hope

Hi,

I thought I would provide an update on my son to hopefully give someone hope that things to get better.

My son started whitholding poos at the time we started potty training him, it has been a year of struggling and using laxido. During this time I thought he would never get out of nappies.

He is now 4 and doing all his wees on the toilet and is off laxido and pushing his poos out himself (although there is still work to do with this)

Things will get better, it just takes time and it is true when your child is ready they will use the toilet eventually. It has been a stressful year but it gets better.
