7 WAYS TO MINIMIZE PANT SOILING (ENCOPRESIS)
Figure out what triggers the pant-soiling and try to minimize
these situations. Does it happen when he is stressed? Does he get
so engrossed in play that he forgets to listen to his body signals?
Talk to your child about the importance of listening to his
body signals. If he doesn't listen to his body, the feces gets
harder, the doughnut muscle gets weaker, and the less the bowel and
brain talk to each other.
Some children are embarrassed about going to the bathroom,
so impress upon your child that going to the bathroom is normal
and something that everyone does.
Put your child in clothes that they can get out of quickly,
such as pants with an elastic band, rather than buttons and zippers.
Determine if your child is constipated. Constipation is often
the culprit of encopresis.
Let the child over six take responsibility for cleaning
his/her soiled pants. This is not a punishment, but rather a way
to help your child learn to take responsibility for his actions
and motivate him to listen to his body signals.
Avoid drawing too much attention to your child's bowel
habits, as this can aggravate the problem. Focus on a solution
rather than the problem. See Soiling Pants for more information.
