My 3 Year old daughtar wont poop on the potty.

I have a 3 year old daughtar that is in panties and she will go pee on the potty but she won't poop on the potty. We got rid of all the diapers and pull-ups. she knows when she has to go but instead of going to the potty she runs and hides. She insists on going in her panties. Do you have any suggestions?

Yes. Be patient and supportive - she's well on her way to mastering potty training. Occasionally (don't go overboard) have her watch a children's video about potty training, or read such a book with her. It may help to enhance her motivation to take this last step.
