Growing up in China in the 1990’s, all babies wore split pants and were “potty trained” incredibly early. I was fully by 9 months, it is definitely cultural. It’s strange to be in the USA and see children wearing diapers until they’re 2-3. Kids are capable of a lot more than what Western society thinks - they just lack the opportunity.

@roar44879 9 месяцев назад

It must be such a cultural shock.

@VictoriaD10001 8 месяцев назад

Yes totally! My parents are from Sri Lanka and potty training as an infant is totally normal there too… I find changing a 2-3 year olds diaper super strange as well…

EC is the best thing ever. last time i started at around 10 days old with my baby, this time ill start straight away from birth. last time by 5 months my baby could communicate to me by blowing a raspberry that she needed a kaka. by one year she could verbally tell me 'kaka' and she was using the toilet with a seat reducer. Couldnt have cloth diapered without this knowledge. Great you're speaking out and about it

I've always had the intention to do elimination communication after baby's first month but on my second week, I was trying it, just for fun. Not that I was not overwhelmed by being a new mama but..haha. I was curious. Now baby is 3 months old and she will TELL ME when she needs to poo, pretty much screams her head off and going "NGH" with a crunching motion. Now she will go even when we are at someone else's sink. Oh..I do it over the sink because I feel it is easier. Pee, poo, wash. Instead of having to hold the potty and maybe pee gets out and then washing the potty. ALSO, I feel one big positive is that we have one more thing we KNOW about our child. There is one more option for her fussing. It can be a negative too in the beginning as there is like ONE more thing to consider. Is it pee, poo, eat, sleep, burp? I think it gets better and am not giving up just yet, though somedays can get tiring when you think you've done it all...just that...you didn't hold long enough for poo..there's still more to come! 😄 or is it just me?

@duckymr1 3 года назад

is fart/gas on your list too? I've heard that's #6 on the list! Also heard that it helps to "walk" them or mimic going for a walk by moving their legs in a bike type fashion. A walk around the block gets the fart out! haha it's true for adults, and seems to work really well for gassy babies too. Apparently it's a well known technique.

@WithoutVlogs 3 года назад

This sounds so logical to me, since it is the same you potty train a puppy. With our pup I used to go outside right after she played, when she woke up and about 20 minutes after eating. When she was really small this was about every other hour. After about two hard weeks I started noticing signals when she needed to go outside. She would look out of a certain window in our house to let us know or she would shortly sniff the ground. When she grew older, the times between potty times grew longer naturally. I think it would be the same with babies. They can get the concept quite fast and after that it is just waiting for them to be able to control their bladder for longer intervals.

@CatFromFL Год назад

Just having a potty chair or seat teaches them to sit and go, if their feet are elevated ( like when adults use a squatty potty) the angle is even better. When you use the toilet it is good to have your baby sit bare butt on their potty chair at the same time. If you have ipad/smart phone or tablet play the “kids youtube” potty videos. They are very good and teach better than most parents could.

@baileywengerherrera6185 3 года назад

I love that you keep mentioning something that I'm also giving a go. Makes me feel less crazy ha! I was lucky to come across a video from Andrea two weeks in where she spoke about trying to notice their signals, and how instructively babies don't want to soil themselves, and all of a sudden the fussyness during breastfeeding made sense as she needed to do a wee. As we're in lockdown anyways I was like okay let's give this a go why not. Bought the top hat potty. Haven't looked back. 🙌🏼

We caught our first 💩 when baby was a few days old. It's so fulfilling to have a catch because it means one less poopy diaper to wash in the laundry. 😁

@lala-gg4dg Год назад

when my tiny baby would poo in her tiny pot it was literally the most satisfying thing in the world. and she always looked so calm and serene after. no cleaning of kaka off her tiny body. no 'poo explosions' i honestly have no idea how people deal with babies and their poo the mainstream way. i swear it caused so much less stress between me and my partner because we never had to worry about changing disgusting diapers. he was also super into the EC which really helped

@Lisa-qt7pw 3 года назад

DEFINITELY give it a go! We did this because we are using cloth diapers and once they start solids its an awesome way to NEVER have to wash out the poop on a diaper! :) We started around 4.5 months and our baby is now 12 months and 95% poop trained and about 40-50% pee trained. Its quite amazing actually!

@HannahBMann 3 года назад

This is genius! EC requires effort but seems SO worth it. I agree that when you move having the potty on your toilet seems like a good transition. In the lead up to your move have you thought about moving Alyia around to different rooms to acclimate her new potty environments? She seems like a pro already!! Keep up the good work 🎉

Wished I potty trained my kids earlier. My girl is turning 5 at the end of the week and still not 100% potty trained. Her strong willed nature of being told or reminded to go made her hold it until she busting. My 2yr old is showing signs hes ready to be potty trained. Wish me luck. I also hv a 10wk old. I notice his cues but still let him go in his nappy. Am just so exhausted. But this is something I would like to try.

@clarimelvlakancic72 3 года назад

We did EC just for poop with our 1st at 18 months because I was tired of wrestling a snake to change her poop diapers. I wish I’d done it sooner! She never had any issues with poop when we potty trained, unlike many other kids in my mom groups, because to her poop belonged in the toilet and that was it. We’re trying it again now with our 6 month old and have caught pee twice and poop once. We’re not crunchy at all, but I love EC!

@kelleyryanvlogs 3 года назад

I think this totally depends on if you have a daycare attendant that is willing to do this as well. Obviously you could just do it at your home and then not out and about/at daycare but the baby will catch on faster if it is consistent inside and outside the home :)

Haha that actually sounds spot on to me! I don’t think she’s potty trained but I do think she knows what to do on the potty and it’s my job to know when to put her there

@RowesRising 3 года назад

I think that’s the diaper companies way of creating “studies” convincing parents to buy their products until kids are 5.🤷🏻‍♀️ “here’s an idea! Let’s convince parents their kids need to poop their pants then sell them diapers until the child that poops pants realizes the rest of the big kid world poops on the potty!” Sounds real clever. Marketing is genius. My kids must be the exception because after eliminating in the potty since near birth, they totally told me when they had to eliminate through their baby communication. And I facilitated because they didn’t have dexterity to take off their cloth diapers or pants themselves. By mobility at 12 months they could journey to their tiny potty on the floor and “tell me” in so many ways they needed to eliminate. Heck yeah I’m “trained” to recognize my baby’s needs to eliminate and facilitate teaching them to eliminate in appropriate places besides their pants. In many tribal communities, mothers use elimination communication instinctively, from birth.

@kelleyryanvlogs 3 года назад

LOL Totally spot on... I feel that I am the one that is potty trained :) however, now that we have a 12 month old... she is VERY predictable and ALWAYS has a morning poop and pee.... and almost always pees after both of her naps and before bath time! It is quite insane honestly!!!!

Can you do a video on sign language? 😁 I've seen you mention the ones you teach in a few videos. I'm thinking of starting with my baby soon! Thanks for the super helpful videos. You're the only person I watch lol 🧡

We really don’t do much. More and all done is about what we do and she’s just getting a handle at 13 months

I did this for my daughter since she was 1 month . But with second child I am occupied in something or other. He is eight months now. For him I will start once he turns nine. i feel bad for him

@heyshayla Год назад

Don’t feel bad! We didn’t start until 6 months for both the second child has the older one and things are different! You’re doing fantastic

How do you get started with EC? My baby is almost a year old. I actually did cloth diapering for first 6-7 months, then mostly stopped because I find getting the fit just right too difficult now (plus my baby went from loving diaper changes to hating them). Like seriously, I have to change him on the floor and he fights the entire time. Did you get started with the undies things? I only know when my baby is about to poop (usually, also a bit of a pattern to poop). I have no idea what any of "pee cues" would be. From what I have read, it reccommended putting baby on potty in morning when waking up, changing diaper in bathroom (so they can see poop goes in the potty). I just don't see any "pee cues" so I have no idea how EC would work for pee. But I can see how it can work for poo.

@heyshayla Год назад

Transition times! So yes when you wake up, before and after. Before you leave for a drive or a walk or eating in the high chair after you get back etc

@heyshayla Год назад

It’s hard!

@@heyshayla thank you for the tips. I did buy the "Go diaper free" book. I am now home with him most of the time so I will give it a try. I am so over diapers because diaper changes have become quite a battle.

Great video, love the vibe. I love your philosophy. I follow. My son is 13 months now. We started potty training him a few weeks ago, he’s amazing at it. He started seeming uncomfortable in a diaper, he Hid to go pee or poo and looked embarrassed when we looked at him. So cute. He has used the tiny potty three times now.

I am an EC drop out lol, I think I went a whole 3 days, I'm the worst lol. But we do cloth diaper.

@heyshayla 3 года назад

Try again (if you want to) I quit too but the transition times seem to be a winner

@volcom458 2 года назад

Hey I was Just wondering what happens when you catch it and then go and it’s great.. but do you still wipe them? Surely there would be a little poop on their butt cheeks. Do you just go back and wipe it off like a regular diaper change? How do you keep it off you haha

@Okiegamer77 2 года назад

I really want to try this, but I feel really intimidated by this. I also can’t afford to buy the book and the tools to go with this. My baby is two months old so still in a good time range to start. My biggest issue though is that my husband thinks the whole idea is crazy. He says it’s not real so I’m really doubting myself about it.

@elvirazeb4113 3 года назад

I startet EC right when we came home from the hospital with our LO. She was mainly pooping and peeing while breastfeeding which made it easy. Normal pee i didn’t catch as often because there were “no” signs. Unfortunately she went into surgery to get an urostomy which makes it a mess when she doesn’t wear a diaper so we stopped with EC. Hopefully we can start again when she gets her reversal surgery. Also I don’t like the term potty training, because diaper free/EC is more about the communication and granting babys not to pee/poo themselves :)

My daughter is 6 months and I just started. She pees on the potty almost every time. At what age was your child actually potty trained by?

@heyshayla 2 года назад

We really started at 21 months (apparently it would have been better to go for it between 12-18 months) and she’s almost two and we get 80-90%
