I have to find a way to control her pooping habits so that she can only poop 2 times a day does that sound normal? Before she would poop in morning and then again at night and now it seems like she poops morning noon and night LOL!!! She's a pooping machine... One thing I do want to do that the book suggested is give her only 15-20 mins to eat and then I'll take her food away usually I'll leave her food in the kitchen with her so she has access to eat all day.... She never eats her breakfast so thats why I leave it but from looks of it. She's gonna have to learn I guess right? Do I sound harsh? I don't wanna be a mean mommy
Midway through reading and chuckling to your response I thought about controlling her food to manage the poop. It might seem mean at first but you have to do something because leaving it isn't working. Maybe start controlling her food on a weekend when you're home to try and get her on a schedule so she doesn't starve the first couple of work days...
