#82.5 Super-part-time EC success story
If I had a dollar for how many moms didn’t start elimination communication because they had to return to work, use a daycare, and didn’t think it would be worth the effort...man, I’d have a bunch of dollars! You see, I am convinced that with the right story in your mind, you too will realize that you CAN do EC super-part-time, use a daycare, and still have early potty independence. You can have it all. I’ll prove it to you with today’s episode featuring a story from a busy working mom who read my book and decided to try EC strictly part-time!

#82 Elimination Communication + Potty Training with TWINS
If you’re thinking this whole pottying thing could never work for you because you’re expecting (or already have!) twins…Think again! I’ve helped like a million families do EC over the years, and certainly there were parents of twins among them! Even if you don’t have actual twins, I know from my own experience that pottying multiple kids close in age can really complicate things. This week’s episode is all about the tips and wisdom from some twin parents who have gone through EC– and found great success.

#81 A toddler + a baby
Your sweet second baby has arrived (or is due to arrive soon!) But your firstborn is still working on pottying skills (in addition to all the other toddler skills!). When you have your second baby, you’re definitely doing double duty from then on out. It can be a big challenge - keeping up with elimination communication with your baby while you have a young toddler afoot. I know, I’ve been there, 4 times. But does EC have to go on the back burner while you wrangle your toddler (and possibly finish toilet training him or her)? I say, “no.” Take a listen to all my tips in this week’s podcast episode.

Andrea Olson of Go Diaper Free explains elimination communication - the concept of pottying your baby, as early as birth - which is what people have done for all of human history and in today’s world where there are no diapers. She makes it easy to integrate EC into your modern lifestyle as a new parent, demystifies how to know your baby needs to go, how to take them to the toilet instead of primarily relying on the diaper, and makes EC approachable, accessible, and fun, for all parents...whether part-time, with or without diapers, and in any region of the world. Contrary to popular marketing messages, diapers are tools, not toilets, and babies are ALL born “ready” to use the toilet. Learn how to connect with your baby on this very natural level with Andrea’s expert guidance, and experience the freedom of a life without dependence upon diapers, a life without traumatic toilet training, a life where your baby gets a head start on developing motor skills, communication, and learning by prioritizing this age-appropriate skill (0-18 months). EC honors your baby’s dignity and makes parenting THAT much easier! Stop changing blowouts...and learn how to listen to your baby’s requests for good hygiene. Learn more at godiaperfree.com. (PS - Andrea also occasionally covers potty training, for those of you who find us after 18 months.)
