Not really, Eli is just trying hard to make poo poo into his potty because he knows he can have a bit of ice cream as a reward. 3 days now and 2 out of 4 times he's given me the signal and he's made successful poop into a potty.As for the eating/multi-tasking.... it's really just my trick of helping his intestine muscles to respond faster when he's sitting on a potty. I think the chewing motion sends signals to the intestines to make room for what's coming down the esophagus(sp?).
