    American Baby magazine article on EC...

    ...was not very nice about it! I'm curious if any of you read it. The author gave it a 10 day trial and it didn't work for her. Although it did mention how people used to PT their children 12-18 months but now with disposables, people wait until they are 2 1/2 to 3. I'd like to start once Logan can walk. I love CD but I really hate changing diapers all day!

    We part time EC and I wish the author would have presented that as an option. EC is not an all or nothing thing KWIM?

    I didn't read it, but 10 days is a pretty lame trial.  We only sort of EC, I put C on the potty when we get up in the morning, when he seems like he might need to poo and when he signs anything that seems like he might need to go.  I'm sure eventually it will help with potty training, but I just couldn't deal with doing full-time EC.

    This is what I do too. I did it with my last dd and when she was ready to take over and start doing it full time, it was easy because she already knew what to do.

    EC stands for elimination communication.

    Does anyone have a link to the online article. Sometimes magazine will have a short form of the article on line. Maybe I can find it at the YMCA? Main stream magazines can twist anything.
