So far it's been hell: DD loves the toothbrush but WILL NOT part with it to allow me to put paste on or even turn it round so the bristles go in her mouth! I've never seen her get so traumatised when I take something off her! Do I need to get 2 brushes, like the 2-spoons technique at mealtimes?! She watches me brush - that doesn't help yet.
Also when will I be able to get her to spit, and does it matter that it doesn't seem like she'll be able to do so for quite some time? (I use hardly any paste.)
