she's was late on potty training just last year got her to pee. the poop she would here and there or at least tried. but in the last 2 months she won't even attempt to poop on the toilet. we've tried everything from offering rewards to the clock method, making her clean her pants (which she likes more then hates) everything! we refuse to put pullups back on since we got rid of them months ago. she never gives us a good reason why she poops her pants. people think it could be a medical problem but i don't think so. what should i do? i'm lost....

she might be afraid of the

she might be afraid of the toliet alot of time some kids are actually afraid of it, do you have any type of toliet seat cover or anything,, try making the toliet inviting put her favorite colors around it put some barbies on the back just make it inviting,, i would be quite offeneded if someone told me it was a medical problem unless she has been slow in developent or is going uncontrollably then your fine,,, also how high is the toliet it might be to high for her try even using a toddler potty, i had the same problem when i was young,, just try to make it seem like a fun inviting place,, and no rewards no meaness that never does the trick, rewards will only teach her that if she doesn't want to do it she doesn't have to unless you give her something.
