Just started potting training, need help?

My Daughter just started potty training and shes got the peeing down. Just started pooping in the potty, but every time she goes a little bit she'll stand up and freak out that theres poop in the potty. Making me either cover it with tissue, or flush it and rinse it out only for her to sit back on it and poop alittle more, then repeate the whole process over until shes done going.

Do you have any tips on how to keep her sitting on the potty until shes done??

My husband says we should humor her till she gets use to it.

Me and my ex were together for 2 1/2 years and we broke up because our relationship was becoming abusive. In those 2 years we had a baby girl and she became my life not his. When we broke up he decided he didn't want to be apart of her life and i told him thats okay i can handle being a single parent. Not in those words at first i was all distraught, any whoo. I fell in love with my friend who ive known for years and we got married in May. My ex bf still calls constintly and not to ask about our daughter but to just talk to me and ask stupid questions about my marriage. Its very frustrating and my husband gets mad because he'll call or just show up at random times at the night. (as late as 2am). We could do the obvious of change our number but he still knows where i live. Im down right pissed that hes doing this even though ive tried to explain to him in an adult manner that ive moved on and he needs to leave me along but uses my daughter as an excuse. When he NEVER asks about her or even cares when shes all excited to see him. Im not one of those evil women mind you, if he wanted to be apart of her life i'd be okay with that and excuse his behaviour but hes all about talking to me and seeing me. What should i do?

My husband and I are living with my Stepdad and my Mom because of rough times. Well My stepdad, Bill, is a Messianic Jew who has strong beliefs and doesnt want anything to do with Halloween. Well im Christian and i see nothing wrong with the holiday. I feel like everytime I mention to him or my Mom that im going to dress my daughter up they are quick to judge me and make me feel like a horrible irresponsible mom. Should i dress her up and let her have fun like I use to when i was younger (shes 2 btw) or should i try to keep peace in the house.
