We had the kids pooping many miniscule poops just to get more candy. That's when we switched to "a sticker everytime you poop, after 5 stickers you get to pick stuff from the bucket of cheap crap you got at birthday parties and forgot about." Good luck! Careful!

I can only hope our progeny turns out to train early. Yeah, things to consider when you’re staring down the barrel of the delivery gun…

We used bribery as well. My daughter liked Skittles, and she would pee on the potty but refused to poop. We told her that she could get one Skittle for trying, and three Skittles for producing. Later, we added a choice of stickers or tatoos, provided she used the big potty. Worked like a freaking charm. Now, she usually uses the big potty all on her own, and she doesn't even ask for a reward anymore (though she still asks us to inspect). What I'd like to know now is how long does the butt wiping phase last? Very cute.
