    Free tools for the hard poop days

    Five small, practical tools for parents of children who hold, fear, or refuse to poop. Each one does a single job, works on your phone, and keeps everything on your device.

    • No account
    • No child name or birthdate
    • Saves on this device only

    All tools

    Educational content only. Not a substitute for medical advice from your child's pediatrician.

    Where to begin

    How the tools fit together

    You don't need all five. Most families start with one, then add another when it's useful.

    1. Watch and write it down

      A week or two in the Poop Tracker shows the real pattern — and gives your pediatrician something concrete.
    2. Change the words and the rhythm

      Pick a few calm scripts and a predictable routine, so poop time stops being a negotiation.
    3. Bring everyone onto the same plan

      Share a handoff sheet with other caregivers, and a visit summary with your pediatrician.

    When to contact your child's pediatrician

    Contact your child's pediatrician promptly if you notice any of these.

    • No bowel movement for 5 or more days
    • Blood in the stool or on the toilet paper
    • Vomiting, fever, or a swollen or very painful belly
    • Stool leaking or soiling in a child who was previously trained
    • Weight loss, poor appetite, or a child who seems unwell
    • Pain or distress that is getting worse rather than better
    • Anything that worries you — you know your child best

    Poop Peace is educational. It does not diagnose or treat. If you are worried about your child, contact their pediatrician or local emergency services.
