Mia has pooped in the potty about five times now, but some days she chooses to use her diaper or take a dump in the diaper right after we take her off the potty. We are excited at the prospect of getting her fully toilet trained, but it does take some patience as we've had to sit by her for some time. Mia likes to have company, this is a habit we have to nip in the bud as it isn't a cultural norm I'm aware of. The interesting thing is that she does not pee on the potty yet.
The sheer volume of a toddler's poop really surprises us. It's pretty much just as much and just as big in diameter as an adult's poop. One does not really appreciate the amount of poop when it's flattened in a diaper. Ken took a picture of Mia's most recent poop to send to his best buds as they are always talking poop and gross stuff. Boys! If you want to see it, just email me. You'll be amazed.

For us, it wasn't just sheer volume (which is a lot as well) but in frequency! Our kids poop about THREE times a day! All in good large ... um... quantities! :P
