Help me!
My oh and I have been potty training our 2.5 year old twins since jan. The dr recommended we start because twin 2 kept getting external thrush so we figured we'd tackle it with both twins at the same time Shock
So this is how we are doing 7 months in.
Twin 1 will 'hold it' aaaaaaaallllllll day unless I still put her on the loo every hour or so but will tell me if she's had an accident but never if she needs the loo.
Twin 2 will always tell me when she needs a pooh but not when she needs a wee.

When did your toddlers start telling you they needed the loo? I'm starting to feel so disheartened by the whole thing. What can I do to encourage them to tell me Confused
