The book I am reading. |
Hardcore ECers will tell you that it isn't potty training, it's just potty communication but I believe an association will develop over time. Personally as of right now I don't necessarily rely on communication but rather routine. After a nap, after nursing and before napping I set him on his toilet trainer seat on the actual toilet and he has gone more times on the toilet than his diaper on our very first day! It's funny what kind of experiences seem rewarding once you become a parent!
Gabriel slept 9.5 hours straight last night! He was in great spirits so I thought I'd Ergo it down to base to meet Chris. As I was getting G into the Ergo he had a mini melt down so I had to switch to the Stroller. The stroller was such a hassle compared to the day before with the Ergo! I headed out with Rachel and her son. We stopped by the Hallmark type store to pick up some cards. The elevator down to the card section was not big enough for the stroller and I! I had to literally hold the stroller up on its front wheel and shimmy in! It didn't help that the door had no sensor so as I was trying to wiggle my way into the elevator the door kept closing on me. We joke that we were being eaten alive by this Japanese elevator! We just laughed and laughed, felt like one of the 'hidden camara' moments.
Did another huge grocery shopping trip. I am finally feeling like I have a decently stocked pantry.
My sister-in-law does EC! Looking forward to hearing how it goes.
ReplyDeleteOh cool! Have you thought about it?
DeleteI believe it Lena! :) We had one parent that did this (I can't remember if you know Gage?) and he was using the potty in the infant room! Unless people have seen it or are parents themselves and have tried it..they might think it sounds a little crazy. But I have seen it and it does work!
ReplyDeleteVery exciting and rewarding for you! :)

I DO remember him! I still think of all those babies! Is Avery still around? LOVED that little girl. That's so awesome!
DeleteNo Avery :( There are some from that group around still though :)
DeleteYay! Glad it's working out for you. With both girls out of diapers before 2, I am a huge fan of EC!
ReplyDeleteIt's AMAZING! I hardly ever change poopy diapers! Works out fabulously with cloth diapering.
