If she is afraid of accidentally pooing in the bath, it might be helpful to explain that if she poos in the potty just before she gets in the bath, then she won't poo in the bath, because there won't be any poo ready to come out. She might not realize that when she needs to poo is not totally random and that she can buy herself some time.
Thanks for that suggestion I will try explaining more explicitly to her next time it comes up. At the moment she's too sick to muster the energy for bath time carry on.
But speaking of forming beliefs about things very quickly, and sometimes ill advisedly, after 3-4 doses of paracetamol in 24hrs she has started refusing the breast because it's "yucky" (because I have been offering straight after medicine).
