My cousins daughter always smelt like poo, she would always have a small amount of poo in her undies & my Cousin would tell her off etc...
But when she started school it continued & she couldn't & didn't want to have sleep overs as she was terrified her friends would find out.
After her 8th birthday my cousin was so sick of it happening, only ever poo, not wee though, but took her to the Dr, who sent her off for ultrasounds & etc & found out that she has a kink in her bowels, possibly caused from being an overweight infant they think, although now she is trim & 13 yrs old!
Anyways, this excess kink in her bowel catches poo in it & it sits there & goes rancid as such, as it has already passed through most of her bowels & is so close to the exit area, her body doesn't let her know when it rejects it (after going rancid & getting really woofy over a few days!) her body then forces it out of the pocket or kink & it's just a small amount, but really smells.
At age 10 they did keyhole surgery & stitched the kink shut, but her bowel made a new one.... So she literally goes to the toilet every hour & tries to poo, they think doing this mght shrink the pocket or once she has grown more they will try to stitch it again...
Not sure, but maybe this could be the problem???
But if your 7 yr old is saying it's boring to go to the toilet then he quite possibly knows & gets the sensation, just doesn't stop what he is doing???
I think I'd talk to a Dr or someone to check it out, maybe now their holding on has made this pocket in theire bowels or a similar thing?
