How often to your dc's wee??

Am getting a little concerned about the amount dd goes to the toilet. She is 3.2 and has been potty trained since about 2.5. She has never gone very often but over the last month or so she has gone down to 1 or 2 wee's a day. She is dry overnight also but NEVER goes overnight. Today for example woke up at 7.30am didn't go until about 11am and hasn't Bern again since despite me putting her on the toilet a few times and running taps etc to try and stimulate her!

She drinks a 'normal' amount I think - around 3/4 cups of water/watered down juice a day. She's never been overly thirsty though and does need to be encouraged to drink. When she does go it's not vast amounts. She never complains of it stinging/hurting so don't think infection but it just seeems odd? Her little friends seem to go MUCH more frequently. She also only does a poo every 2 or 3 days again not painful for her.

Sorry for long post-any advice/experiences would be most welcome as not sure if it's a problem or not. Thank you.

What colour is her urine? Ideally it should be the colour of champagne.

TBH it really doesn't seem like she's drinking enough, does she resist drinking more?

I would try and get loads more juice/water down her and see if she goes more. My ds can go all day without going on school days as noone is making him drink but on weekends he goes few times during day as I make him drink much more. Hth

I have been trying to get her to drink more but she is fairly resistant. Today she has had approx 4 tommee tipped size cups of water plus 1 of milk. She has had 3 of them since she went at 11am so seems a awful lot for her to hold! When she goes it is almost clear presumbly because it is so watered down!
