My 11month old baby has just started to poo in the bath. He loves his bath and lays down kicking about... then stops, pushes, pops and keeps going yukky!
I'd leave him in the bath longer but after the poo, obviously, it's straight out which sets off a crying jag brh.
What can i do to try to stop this??? He seems to do it even if he's just done a poo in his nappy!
lol hun thats normal... i think cause their muscles relax more it just wants to come out lol.. i dont think u can really stop it.. but maybe scoop it out let the water drain out n redo the water again..
My DS did this for about 6 months until just before his 2nd birthday. We just had to ride it out and wait until he decided not to do it anymore. We also started giving him showers instead because it was a bit easier. He still pooed in the shower too We didn't come up with any fool proof strategies for getting him to stop, he just did. It's not much fun having poo in the bath, having to stop a lovely bath time and then having to clean it all up once it is over (not to mention the toys) but it is a stage and it passes.
Well ladies that's NOT what i wanted to hear lol. OMG i so hoped someone woudl say "oh means he's ready to potty train and will have that sorted in a week" lol
Yep, although it's gross it's totally normal! My DS started doing it a couple of months ago and while I can see he's about to go, there's nothing I can do about it. It is a pain cleaning all the toys etc so I hope he grows out of it soon!
DD used to do this all the time....my DH decided that the bath was too hot, i think having a cooler bath helped!! otherwise we would sit by the bath waiting for the poo face and whip her out for the loo! good luck
That's prefectly normal. My son did the same thing. The moment I stopped reacting to it, he slowly started to grow out of the habit. It's just a phase.
AGAIN tonight i was in the bath with DD she did the face, i pulled her out and she stopped so back in she got and then she gave me a lovely surprise that i called DF to come and collect lol
