I love EC! Did it with 3 out of 4 babies. As a fellow mobility challenged mama, what helped me keep up with EC when I wasn't up to hauling baby around was having a little potty and a diaper caddy set up in our main hangout space (living room for us). The ikea potty is the best I've found for teeny baby bums to sit independently. My diaper caddy had dipes & wipes, changing pad, and an extra outfit or two and is easy to take with me as I move around the house.

I didn't even know about this when I had my two but they are just about grown now lol. Even if I had, sadly this would not have been possible for us just simply due to both being extremely premature and various health issues in the first 2 years, surgery ect that just would have created more set back and possibly issues with self esteem with back and forth after each surgery and procedure along with the health issues. I don't see anything wrong with this as long as you don't take it to the point where you are punishing baby for not going or having accidents. I actually knew somebody, years after mine were through the toddler stage, who was quite harsh with this style of training. I can deff see where there can be a very fine line between healthy use of this technique and extremely unhealthy. As long as you continue with the way you describe in the video girl, you are doing an amazing job. I do hope this continues to work for you and your child.

I've had a conversation about it with my sister. (We both don't have any kids yet.) We do have friends that do through. I think what we leaded on, is it's more about training yourself which will eventually teach the child how to use the toilet by themselves.
@twdobesh3 жыл бұрын
Pam M I didn’t see it as training myself. It was me being fine tuned to my baby’s cues that they needed to eliminate. Every cry and fuss has a purpose. Quickly you realize they want to communicate their elimination needs so they don’t soil themselves. You give them opportunities to potty when you would normally want to, like after eating, upon waking, and regularly throughout the day. There is no need to potty train later on when you use elimination communication because they don’t lose those urges to not soil themselves.

I have a 31 year old stepson who has been my child since he was 16 months old. So, although I did not give birth to him, he's my son in every sense of the word. Due to a very hostile and uncooperative birth mother our custody of him was very limited. Even though, over his summer vacation when he was 2 1/2 I toilet trained him and told his mother to pay attention and not to screw it up! That all being said, I'm hoping to be a grandmother and I am very interested in EC! I'm TECHNICALLY not a mom, but consider myself to be as close to one as possible and I watched your post until the end! Very well done and lots of straight forward and useful information.

This makes SO much sense. Biologically, evolutionarily, psychologically. My son, however, was and still is perfectly content to pee all over himself any time of day.

He was poop trained 2 full years before pee! 🙄

Thanks for sharing this! I had heard of Ec before but never explained quite as well as this. My son also peed when the diaper was removed but it never occurred to me that it was a sign he did not enjoy being wet. Eventually he got used to it and potty training was long and hard since he would not say anything even if his underwear was wet. I believe that girls experience a bit more diaper discomfort because of their anatomy and therefore are a bit quicker to train but even my son had he had the opportunity when he was a newborn, might have continued to naturally lean towards staying dry. I’m definitely trying this if I have another kid!

The nurses would keep swaddling him and I would undo it and he would calm down. Anyway I'll stop rambling on.

Elimination communication. I didn't learn about it until I had my second child, and I was too overwhelmed with everything to consider it. I have done a little bit of elimination communication with my 2nd, 3rd, though not my 1st or 4th. I do personally know a couple of families who use it exclusively with all of their children from birth, one had three children the last I talked to them before they moved and we lost contact. it's an awesome practice, but I only think I'd be able to be successful at it if I had known about it and started with my oldest when I didn't have other children to attend and to focus on as well.

A mother of two, and aunt of at least four, great aunt to 6, I have never heard of EC or Baby signing. Maybe it’s my generation, but it seems really out there. I’m not knocking it, just commenting on how alien the concept is to me, but clearly you are getting results. I was fortunate with my own children as they both self potty trained by about 13 - 14 months. My daughter hated a wet diaper, and quickly learned how to break free from hers, as soon as she learned the potty was for the business, she used it. My son was a streaker, constantly stripping off, we had to get him familiar with potty, but they also went to a day mother, so they learned in part from the older children.

I don't intend to get wrapped up in rhetorical quibbles. So if you prefer it, I won't use 'potty training' to describe what you and your daughter are doing. But it's a distinction that lacks conviction, I think. So, how did we all, as a culture, become persuaded that babies are brainless, peeing, defecating potatoes? Hmm. I confess, that was my opinion, too. I suppose I'm allowed to be wrong, as I have successfully avoided raising babies myself, possibly my greatest achievement! (Not everyone will benefit the species by reproducing.) In any event, you have captured my attention. You are willing to trust your instincts, perceptions and reason rather than blindly following conventional wisdom - I like that. You have great heaping gobs of empathy; you read your daughter and your dog - and others, too, I'm willing to speculate - accurately and well. That's a good thing, too. We don't really have a way to measure emotional IQ (nor is our measurement of IQ itself any great shakes), but if we did, I'm sure you would bust the chart and ink would be sprayed willy-nilly. And your daughter is a bright little munchkin. Signing at two months. Sheesh. That she responds emotionally to having some control over elimination is fantastic. Less crying. Happier, more confident. Perhaps more interested in the adults around her - she already knows she can communicate, and not only by howling, so naturally she wants to pick up more in the way of cues that can be understood. The expressions she shows on her face interested me, too. She certainly seems pleased when her decisions result in caretaker compliance. She isn't quite as helpless as she might otherwise be, and her independence and self-autonomy is visibly growing. Would that every baby had a mother so perceptive and empathetic. I am gratified that you offered us this explanation. It's entertaining, surprising, and eye-opening!

He's currently in leap 9 (wonderweeks) and is on a potty strike. So I ordered him some undies to hopefully make it more noticeable when he misses cuz his cloth diapers are very moisture wicking. So hopefully the undies help!

Also want to add how awesome it is that she's signing for it. My son never cared. He would sign for milk and mama at around that age and he knew what potty was when I signed for it but never independently manded for it. Not even now, so all of our catches are transitional between activities, right after a meal, or if he suddenly stops playing and stands still. I hope she still signs for it as she gets older. I have to ask my kid "potty?" And he will say "potty" for yes, or either say "no no no" or run away from me😂😂😂

But it’s also why you’re making such helpful videos - can’t go wrong with science. 😉

Wow! This is so cool! Looking forward to more videos about stuff like this... Baby sign language and such. Also... How good is Migraine Jen at spotting these cues? Is your parenting different when your in a migraine?

This was great! Like you I have been surrounded by children for most of my life (three younger siblings, eight older, and eighteen nieces and nephews). I’ve done a lot of babysitting yet I have never heard of this! I hope that someday I have a chance to do this with my future children.

My daughter is almost 7 weeks old and I felt like she was ready to start this with because she is doing the whole potting on the changing table and using three diapers in one changing thing. I had a baby goat who potty trained herself so I had already mentioned to hubby that I'd like to try this with our little human. On to amazon to find the toilet seat reducer now, lol. Just subscribed after seeing my first video of yours. Thank you for sharing! And your baby is adorable💗👶

Have you looked into / tried stanton migraine protocol? Can look up angela a stanton migraine interviews on youtube. Only thing I still struggle with is hormonal migraine once a month when I'm not pregnant, and I still get aura prodromes but hydrate with water and sodium. And potassium lower carb for food if the migraine is due to low potassium electrolyte balance. The protocol is hard-core and complicated and specific kind of like specific keto diets for seizures. So many migraineurs in the stanton protocol fscebook group have pots and so many similarities and general sensitivities because they have more sensory neurons in the brain and excrete more electrolytes.

I also watched all the way to the end as someone without children. I think it is fascinating how babies and animals communicate. I am currently attempting to figure out cues for when my pet needs to eliminate. If I remember correctly, Buddy also does elimination communication. I love your channel and the stories you share here. :)
