we have been desperatly trying to get her out of her pull ups, but she will not poop on the potty, she will either hold it until she has a pull up on, or not go at all. I dont know what to do with her.

Talk to her constantly about how she can go poopy in the potty. Explain to her that going potty in her pants is yucky and not something big girls do.
GO ahead and put her in underware. She wont feel as protected in them, so when she does poop in them it will be quite an unpleasant experience for her.
Also, its gross, but not changing her until she realizes she stinks or is yucky is a pretty good technique.
Remember she has to see people on the potty to know its okay to go potty in the toilet. Its gross, but she's your kid, I have yet to see this technique fail. :)
There are also tons of books on the subject by all sorts of excellent authors.

My daughter is 2 1/2 and we just went through the same thing. After 2 days of not pooping, she started to say her belly hurt. We put a little table next to the potty with a bunch of her books and left her there alone. Stood outside door. She cried a little but started to read and pooped on her own. She was so thrilled and now poops all the time since then. We just sat her on the toilet and wouldn't let her get down until she did it. Also, we didn't use pull ups unless it was at nap or bedtime.

Don't let her hold it - that is not good for people of any age. My oldest daughter was the same way so what I did is this: I knew how my daughter looked when she was going doody so I snatched her up, ran her to the bathroom, and pulled her pants and pull-ups down and put her on her potty chair. She didn't like it at all but it worked! She finished going in the potty and I started to "cry" to show her how much of a big deal it was. Ever since then, she never had a problem going on the potty. Good luck!

We used a prize system so that when our son pooped in the potty 5 times he got a small toy. Pick something they like- for our son we used a matchbox car. After a while this took and the rest is history.

that is very normal and you can't rush it..overwise there will be bigger problems later...and resentment...just let time do its thing...Each kid is different.....think of how you'd like it if someone said to you "oh suzy did it sooner why can't you?!"...or do it do it do it....you'd rebel....and as far as psychology goes..some kids are afraid to "release" part of themselves as gross as that sounds...so try the little sticker awards or a star and when she gets so many by the end of the week...you'll take her to the playground or Mc Donalds.....what I also did with my daughter is when i thought it might be time...i'd take a book and put it on the laundry basket and move it up to her on the potty...so then she just sat there and read to herself and took her time,,,,or i'd read to her....you know what I found (4 years ago)....at Toys R Us was a potty book....they have them for boys and girls...and I would start out silly saying "HELLLOOOOO potty time.."...she loved it...I forgot now when she was finally doing it all on the potty but i know it was after 3 years...yet i knew someone else's kid that did it sooner...but let me tell you my daughter is 5 now and man is she smart...nothing gets by her...good luck...and patience!

this may be a classic degree of progression. Poop is extra of a "some thing" than pee is, and for some infants that's confusing to think of of letting it bypass. verify her weight loss application includes a lot of fruit and vegetables -- 4 or 5 servings an afternoon. decrease back somewhat on milk and meat, when you consider that they have a binding tendency. provide her water or diluted fruit juice. by using now you will in all probability have observed that she often has a bowel stream at a undeniable time on a daily basis. devoid of declaring that "it's time to bypass potty" or making a huge deal of it, in basic terms take her to the bathing room, do away together with her panties, and positioned her on her little bathroom seat. that's extra effective to have one low to the floor, the place she will place her ft, extremely than putting her up intense on the super bathroom, in spite of a small inset seat. on occasion it enables if her knees are unfold somewhat aside. you may busy your self in the bathing room, putting away clean towels and cleansing the sink and taps, or you may step exterior. the two way, in basic terms watch for outcomes, do not communicate to her approximately it or hurry her. whilst she produces a bowel stream, say, "that's precise!" Wipe her backside and help her dress and wash her palms. do not unload the contents of the pot or flush it away in basic terms yet. Wait till she's in touch with play someplace else. If not something happens after 5 minutes or so, say, "properly, we are going to attempt lower back later" and help her dress lower back. it ought to ok take place that she soils her panties, when you consider that that's the way she's used to doing it. attempt to not get mad. positioned the poop into her little potty, asserting "next time you may desire to poop precise into there so your panties stay clean." If an hour has long previous by using by way of fact the 1st attempt and her panties are nonetheless clean, furnish her a sippy cup of water or juice. Then take her to the bathing room and have her sit down on the potty lower back. some young ones respond to a extra basic attitude. you ought to take her into the bathing room with you once you ought to have a bowel stream, tell her what you're doing, practice her the outcomes, wipe, and wash your palms. In any experience, wait and spot. Our 2 women understood completely what became predicted of them, yet each of them theory it became an exceedingly dumb theory and in basic terms did not prefer any area of it for months. a while for the period of the 365 days whilst she became 3, all of the girls desperate it became ok and each little thing went extremely easily.
