The Go Diaper Free Podcast

This episode is all about how to EC boys. What is different, what is the same, and what tips I have having ECd 3 boys and 2 girls, myself, from birth. Hopefully I can share some perspective and make things a little easier for all.

In today’s show I’m also going to share some super-thoughtful tips from readers and followers in our Go Diaper Free community who have boys.

We’ll discuss differences in outcomes, toilet seat logistics, body mechanics, and a few tips and tricks to make ECing boys that much easier.

When starting elimination communication with your baby, you probably have a bazillion questions, like: How often will my baby need to pee? When can I expect my baby to be potty independent? I’ve heard about potty pauses - when can I expect my baby to resist the potty?

And that last question, my friends, is what we’re going to address today.

But, I’m not going to guesstimate when your baby might resist the potty. I’m going to share with you the actual results I’ve gathered from surveying 855 people from our community who’ve done EC with their babies. I’ll also share why the resistance happens, and what to do about it.

For those of you who’ve been following our journey with our 5th and final baby, ECd from birth - Ms. Twyla Bean - here is our 18 month elimination communication update. So many things have been so organic this time and I couldn’t be more pleased with implementing the things that I teach y’all to do with your babies. And our nighttime success has been mind-blowing! Today we’ll go through Twyla’s last 6 months, stage by stage, along with take-aways that you can use with your sweet baby.

If you don’t want to use diapers at night, want your child potty trained at night, but keep having accidents (or, in elimination communication lingo, “misses”)...look no further. The “dream pee” might just solve your nighttime woes.

 

Across my own 5 babies, I found that a strategically placed dream pee helped them stay dry at night, and sleep better, during certain times of their baby and toddler years.

In today’s show, I’ll share what a dream pee is, whether you should do them, how to prepare your space, how to do the dream pee, and what to do if you hit trouble. By the end of the show you’ll see how a dream pee can help your nighttime dryness goals for your 12 month plus baby or toddler. And if you have a baby 0-12 months, you will see what’s coming next, and the difference between a dream pee and baby-led nighttime EC.

Early potty independence can cause better toddler behavior, freeing up the brain to learn. It’s called “normalization” in the Montessori school of thought, and something I feel compelled to share with you about today!
