Training toothpaste

I finally got around to getting some of this stuff this past weekend. Before then, I was just using water to brush LO's teeth. I was just wondering if I was super late on this wagon or not.

    No toothpaste here but it's because I keep forgetting to buy training paste when I'm at the store. Oops.

    Like my poll description suggests, since I finally got around to buying some, LO gets his teeth brushed with a tiny smidge of the training toothpaste twice a day.  

    LO seems to fight tooth brushing a little less these days too ... which I don't know if it's just an acceptance of the inevitable, or if he likes the taste better now!  Either way, I'll take it.

    Twice a day with the Tom's of Maine kids toothpaste. 16 teeth here with 2nd year molars coming soon (according to his dentist). We use less than the size of 1 grain of rice. Very little.

    We added in toothpaste a couple months ago and it has made tooth brushing a little less of a struggle. She tries to suck all the toothpaste off while I get a little bit of brushing in. I use the toddler one but might switch to regular kids once this tube is finished.

    We use Toms of Maine Toddler toothpaste every night. My dentist told us twice a day but we forget to do it in the morning. We've been using toothpaste all along.
    Same toothpaste. Every time. We try for twice a day but sometimes we miss it for various reasons (tantrums, sleeping, etc.).

    I use Jack n Jill organic blueberry toothpaste once a day. We have been on the same tube since July. I liked it because it's fluoride free and got a 0 on the EWG scale. He loves it.

    We're pretty good at the night brushing.  Lily thinks it's fun and asks for it.  I have started trying more in the morning.  She loves the taste of the training paste.  She also has started copying me with trying to spit even though there is nothing to spit.
