She's Scared to Poo - Holds it in...

[goddessofdawn]

I posted some time ago about my 2 year old constantly playing with herself - my DH figured it out.
She just started holding in her poos after a large bowel movement & this is a distraction technique. The week that she did it constantly was the week she didn't poo for 4 days. So that problem is solved...

But after doing the large poo, this seems to have scared her & now she whimpers whenever she poos and I hold her & help (not potty trained). I have started her on Osmolax as of yesterday. She pooed yesterday but not today.
I don't have any faith in GPs who will say give her fibre & water (like I'm not already doing that?!)

Has anyone been through this and come out the other side??! I have no idea how to get through this, and having googled and consequently bawled my eyes out for the last hour, no one else knows how to get through it either.
