DS will be 3 in Nov and DD is 18 months. He is intrigued by underwear and has asked for pull ups because his friends at school wear them. BUT he refuses to pee in the potty even though we sit on it every night. We read all the potty books and watch the Daniel Tiger episode and he's all agreeable until it's actually time to go. She has already peed in the potty more than he has, but I think she's a few months from ready. Maybe just do them together? Is that crazy? If anyone has done this I would love to hear your experience and tips!!

I don't have any experience and this might not be the best story but my parents did this with my older brothers. Keep in mind that they're around 40 now. They are about 18 months difference in age. My older brother was stubborn and didn't want to do it and the younger one was like why didn't you tell me what you wanted me to do that? So I think it's possible depending on their personality. However, it did work.

My sister and I are 13 months apart and my mom said the peer pressure was really helpful in getting us potty trained. For me personally, I have twins and I think I want to try to train them totally separately when the time comes because my brain breaks trying to conceive of doing them simultaneously. I guess I'll just have to see how ready they each are independently of each other when the time comes.

I don't have any experience but I think it could work. My son wasn't potty trained until a few months after turning 3 but there were little girls at his daycare that were potty trained before/at two!

I potty trained my three boys together. They are 9 months apart. With the 18 month old you could always just start and see what he thinks of it. If he is not quite ready then you could come back to it later.
