Anyone else doing EC?
Apr 26 2010, 10:52 PM EDT
We've been doing part-time EC with Jacob since he was about four months old. Now that he's 12.5 months old, I can definitely say that he prefers the potty to peeing or pooing himself in a diaper! We have a ritual of going to the bathroom together when we get up in the morning (we co-sleep, so when he gets up, i get up). I will sit on the toilet, and he sits on his BabyBjorn Little Potty. We both have a pee and then he points enthusiastically to his urine in the BBLP until I empty it into the toilet and flush.He also goes after pretty much every nap, and he's trying to let me know when he needs to potty. Unfortunately, his signal for pooing is the act needy... and that's him most of the time, haha! So we tend to have a lot of half-misses on the pooing - he goes a bit in a diaper, then finishes in a potty. Is anyone else ECing? Does anyone else use sign language to try to communicate with their bub? - E Do you find this valuable?

I am doing EC with my 17 mo old. We have been doing it since birth to one extent or another. She has been going on the toilet with an insert since she was 8 months old. She actually turns around and thanks the toilet before saying bye bye to what she left behind. (LOL)Now that you mention EC, I am going to add an EC album to the photo section. Do you find this valuable? |
