My 2 year old is playing with her feces
by darkangeltearz, Nov 07, 2008 02:24AM
I have a 2 year old little girl, she will be 3 in January. She was born 13 weeks premature and has developmental delays as well as spastic diplega cerebral palsy. For the past 2 weeks she has taken to playing with her feces. She does not remove her diaper but will take off any clothes. She reaches in her diaper and covers the walls, herself and her crib and bedding. It happens every day. I'm at my wits end. I have no idea what could be causing this and I have gotten so many conflicting theories online it's ridiculous. I dont spank my child. Nor yell at her. I have told her no repeatedly. She isnt ready for potty training. She also stays awake almost all night. I am reluctant to go to my pediatrician with this as she tends to blow me off about things lately and we are currently trying to find a new one.
