"Poop" | Autism PDD

Yeah! Light at the end of the tunnel!

YIPPEE! Definitely a sign that the end is in sight. What great news.

A side note on the great exciting conversations... If I ever had another child I vowed that one thing I would do differently is NOT talk about poop so much! When we were potty training, a moment didn't pass where we weren't talking about poop. Do you have to go poop? Let's poop on the potty! Yay, you pooped on the potty! Big boys poop on the potty! No honey, we poop in the potty not our underpants. Honey, he pooped on the potty! And on, and on, and on. Well, eventually they were trained and dh and I were DONE talking about poop. Finito. Over. Ready to move on. Except THEY WEREN'T DONE!!!! They kept talking about poop (at least my NT son did and as my ASD son became more verbal he joined the bandwagon too) all the time. They still talk about it. How do you convince kids that it isn't appropriate to talk about poop all the time when it's all they heard their parents talk about for a solid year? UGH!!!!

YAY for Liam!! Way to go!!!!!!!

Wel Cam, since you didn't come up with an abbreviation for this word...

Liam finally pooped in the potty. We have been relatively successful with pee...but he has never purposely gone poop on his own. He has always waited for a pull up.

I am very excited as there may be an end in sight...DH was obviously excited as well. He called me at work to tell me.

Interesting what our conversations consist of these days, and what us two old folks now consider "exciting".

Whoo Hoo Liam! High 5 Liam!
