Just wandering if anyone else have been in similar situation. My DD, 2,6 drinks a lot of water, around 2 liters per day. We had a few unsuccessful attempts to potty train, she just dislikes sitting on it and the toilet is e big no-no.
I am planning to have another go next week, in the garden with no nappies (weather permitting ), but my big worry is that as she drinks a lot, she pees a lot and have to sit on the potty every half an hour in order to stay dry. She will get bored of doing it and we will fail again:(
Do you wise people have any suggestions, did it happen to you?

I have the same problem. My just turned 3 year old drinks a lot! He is trained with poo'ing but has to wear a pull up when we go out as he pees so much. He will have a wee then another 10 minutes later :/

I've tried cutting down the amount he drinks. It's good they drink so much but my lo will guzzle a whole cup of water in one go rather than having a bit then coming back. I've started giving him half the amount he would normally drink and he's still satisfied.

Good luck :)
