[QUOTE="Fran, post: 9004, member: 3"] This doesn't seem to be unusual in some of the kids with developmental delays. My son had this issue forever or so it seemed. I believe there is a lack of sensation then they develop what is known as mega colon from chronic constipation. There is a thread in General Archives about Encopresis that addresses the issue. It isn't control. Trust me. For my son the issue improved with puberty. I believe the mega colon thing is still an issue but at 22,I am not that involved. It is so demoralizing when you feel that you can't bowel train your child but I really believe it is a neurological issue that isn't addressed much when speaking to professionals about kids who have developmental delays.
