  • We did just a sip of water at dinner time and that’s it, no more


  • Try and get them to drink more during the day. I wouldn’t cut back all drinks, but maybe just have a small drink before bed


  • I would be cutting back earlier then that. At least 2-3 hours before bed. Maybe a small drink with dinner and that’s it


  • We do last drinks with dinner, if she wants a drink after that I allow a couple of mouth full of water. Never a full cup, she would drink it all if given it.


  • I have found it makes absolutely no difference, provided they are guzzling huge drinks. Withdrawing drinks just seems to make them want it more, then they refuse to sleep. It never effected whether they were wet or dry


  • Yes last drink just after dinner. I use to get my kids up to do a wee when i was going to bed they would go and then straight back to bed. until they knew themselves.


  • there are some good comments here


  • try not to let her have drink before bed . . !


  • How are you going with the toilet training?


  • I’d probably let them have a little drink with dinner, an the. Limit them


  • How is the toilet training?


  • Kids need to drink if they are thirsty and the idea is that they learn that they need to get up and go to the toilet during the night if they need to


  • Have you found a time that works better ?


  • How are you going with the toilet training, its almost time for me to start my twin girls with toilet training


  • How did you go with toilet training?


  • I think offer them a big drink straight after dinner and then that is it till bed


  • Some great advice below – hope it helps.


  • I don’t think its fair to not let them have fluids at all after dinner time, what if they’re really thirsty? Let them have it, just limit it.


  • I think they need a drink jus b4 they sleep…. But only very small one


  • just wondering how you are going with this?
