Editorial Review
Product Description
Ryan is scared to use the potty. He's afraid to have a poop because he's afraid it's going to hurt. When Ryan's parents take him to visit Dr. Gold, she engages his imagination with the story of Bill the Coyote's messy house. She also shows him what happens inside the body, and explains how different foods make using the potty easy or hard. This story, along with Ryan's "poop program," will help young children gain the confidence they need to overcome this common problem and establish healthy habits.

This book really helped my daughter with her bathroom problems. It is a must have for any family that is having "pooping" issues. Children can relate to this book and they realize that they are not the only one with bathroom problems and they also understand what is going on in their body.

I like the book and think it is a good resource, but it didn't all of a sudden help my son to go poop in the potty. Would I recommend it, yes! It is definitely worth a try if your child is having potty training issues. But don't necessarily expect it to be the perfect cure.

It Hurts When I Poop!: A Story for Children Who Are Scared to Use the Potty I was reaching the end of my rope. Just when I thought soiled underwear was behind us forever, my 5 year old daughter started refusing to go poop. I would catch her clenching to keep it in. When I asked her why she said it was because it hurt to go. What a nightmare! She got more and more backed up until it started leaking out into her underwear. I started to worry she was going to have to undergo some horrible, embarrassing, emotionally scarring procedure at the Dr. office. I tried begging, I tried bribing, I tried explaining. I tried fiber chews, I tried to get her to take laxatives. I tried to sneak laxatives into her food (unsuccessfully) still she refused. Desperate, I scoured the web and found this wonderful, wonderful book. We read it as soon as we got it and she loved it. I never would have believed it, and I hadn't really held out much hope, but almost right away she was going in the potty and eating "soft poop" foods. She still wants to hear the story almost every night. It's been nearly a month and (knock on wood) no more poopy pants! If your child has a pooping problem you HAVE to try this book!

This is my first every review on Amazon.com. I have never felt compelled to write a review until now. I bought this book for my son (3 1/2) who has had chronic constipation due to withholding (stool retention) for close to a year. This book really helped him release his fear of pooping and understand that pooping is a normal bodily function. I read this book to him and he had his first poop in the potty the next day. Now, granted, we were doing many other interventions (dietary and behavioral) along with reading this that I believe helped him overcome his fear of pooping, but this book was a MAJOR help. Thank you, thank you!
