Our nearly 4 year old has always been very bright, alway on the go very talkative, busy little girl. Have tried on 2 previous occasions to potty train and ended up back in nappies after 3 months both times. Am trying again, 7 weeks down the line, still accidents every time she needs. Even if she is in the loo and asked if she needs ConfusedDh looked up symptoms and dd has almost every one listed. Could she have adhd?

If you look up symptoms you will always manage to fit them to your child.
Your daughter doesn't have to have something 'wrong' with her.

Take advice on the toilet training,..speak to a health visitor - see your doctor in case their is a physical problem with her bladder or bowel ?

Why do you keep going back to nappies ? Why not persevere because every time you go back you may be making it worse.
I doubt problems with potty/toilet training are due to ADHD - probably more to do with anxiety ?
