Jacob earned a Transformer (Bumble Bee) for pooping in the toilet. It only took him 3 days to finally get it. We set it up on the counter right in front of him so he could stare at it while "trying" to go. The pressure :) finally got to him and he performed for dad while mom was at enrichment. He was so excited and his reward has been his pride and joy ever since.
After 4 days of torture and many, many, many trips to the bathroom he decided to finally go again. Of course, this was only after I resorted to a reward (bribe) of getting ice cream. He only decided to push after he confirmed with me that we would go to an actual ice cream shop. What a bargainer. He covers all the bases. We ended up going to TCBY and he got chocolate with a sprinkle cone. By the time he was finished he was even messier than the picutre, but boy was he proud. I made sure he knew we weren't always going for ice cream. He ended up going 3 more times that night, easily!! Hopefully he won't wait for such a long time to decide to go again.
