P.M.
Why are you throwing them away! ? Do you throw away your panties if you get a tiny spot of blood on them? I would wash them, personally. And have her help.
I have been training my daughter for a month now and she will be 3 in 2wks. She is 100% potty trained yet only about 10% poopy trained. She knows that she is suppose to go in the toilet yet she keeps on going in her underware then sitting on the toilet and saying she went. I do not give her the m&m's that she knows she gets if she were to actually go. I am so sick of having to throw her underware away cause it is just full of #2.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get her to actually go in the toilet and not in her underware anymore.

be patient with her, don't yell or get mad, just keep up the positive encouragement. One thing that helped with our son was to let him pick out a toy he really wanted and we put it up on the self in the bathroom and once he made it a week with no accidents he got the toy.
This site helped me to get my guy poop trained, it was the "power incentive" that did it.

And I wouldn't throw her underwear out, I'd wash them out and have her help. How will she learn she's responsible for her actions if she isn't? It took my nephew just one time, his pediatrician had suggested it to my sister.
Put a bucket in the bathroom for dirty underwear....drop the poop in the toliet and underwear in the warm soapy water in the bucket. Then you can resuse them/bleach them/whatever.
My son is 3.5 and is still resistant to pooping on the potty. I'd say he's about 40% there. He just doesn't want to go. He knows how. He can do it. He just prefers to go in his underwear or wait until we put him in a diaper (when he's showing signs of obvious pain). He can hold it for days. I would not rush it. Tell her 'Maybe next time!' or 'You are getting so close to going!' Maybe coax her to sit on the potty after lunch/dinner and read a few books to her. This may get her natural cycle going. Or does she has a time of the day she usually goes? Make this time 'story time on the potty' until Mr. Poopy comes out. LOL
