What one of my readers has to say...

Did you know that EC starts early? (or: why you should not wait to read this book)

Elimination Communication (like offering nap time and breastfeeding) just plain starts early. Babies are born signaling, born wanting to stay hygienic and dry (to not sit in their waste)…born ready! Conventional potty training theoretically begins when baby is “ready,” ranging from 18-36 months of age. You might not be aware that EC can start on day one, even in tiny, doable ways (though you may start at any age – 0-18 months – that works for you)….

  • I know first-hand how difficult it is to be pregnant, have a newborn, or just to be living your life, day to day. We live in such a busy time (and are often doing it all alone)! That said…I would not put off starting EC…and skipping out on changing most of the poopy diapers makes the up-front work worth it. : ) Whether you choose a part-time or full-time potty practice, if you are able to start today (even in some small way), you’ll someday look back and be grateful you did it!

Most new parents regret that they didn’t
start (or learn about) EC sooner.

Pregnant? Consider this your best research source and read up.

Brand new parent? Start EC before baby gets mobile and you both become reliant upon the diaper.

Have a mobile baby (6-12 months)? It’s the perfect time to start reversing that diaper habit.

Have a young toddler (12-18 months)? Many of my readers follow my guidelines for starting EC with this age and find great success. It is honestly never too late to start….you’re right on time. And this is the only place you'll find clear instructions on how to do EC at this age.

Here's what parents are saying about my book.

infant potty training book“I highly recommend this beautiful and excellent resource for ec families. It is the first multimedia version (bravo!) and thus enables readers to quickly find things in the book. Go Diaper Free is richly illustrated and is an invaluable compilation of information.”

-Laurie Boucke, author Infant Potty Training: A Gentle and Primeval Method Adapted to Modern Living

Katrin, Germany"Even though we're 'only' doing part-time EC, I'm really glad I started it and wish I had started earlier. After some time of leaving most of it to me, even my partner got involved and is now proudly telling me about his success every night (I'm back to work and he is at home at the moment), which always makes me smile :-)

Thanks for your motivation! I wouldn't have been able to start and keep this up without you, the book and the community (unfortunately, I don't know anybody around me doing EC as well)."

-Katrin, Germany

elizabeth dallas"I’ve been reading your website and emails for weeks now and trying to do EC… and I have just finally decided to commit and buy your book so I can do it right! Now, I have the Go Diaper Free ebook open on my iPad, and a bare baby bottom on my lap! :) I haven’t read more than a couple pages in one sitting of any book since she was born 3 months ago."

-Elizabeth G., Dallas, Texas

andi b london"Your book has helped me take the leap into EC.  Had I known it’d be so easy, I’d have started earlier.  My baby is now 13 weeks old.  I started only a week and a half ago and he’s already waiting. I haven’t got much time to read these days…the reason I like your book so much is because it is a much more concise, easier read than all the others out there."

-Andi B., London, UK

Yeah, but Andrea...What if it doesn't work for me?

I understand why folks fear that EC won’t work for them or their unique baby. The fear lies in the unknown, my friends! But get this: over half of the world’s infants are toilet trained by 1 year old. Infant pottying does work. For over 200,000 years, in some way or form, it has worked. EC works because your infant was born ready.

However, if you don’t decide on a solid starting point and put a tiny bit of effort into it in the beginning (even just one solid day), just like learning to breastfeed together, EC might not work so well, and you probably won’t want to maintain it. But you know what? I believe in you. I’ve made it simple for you. Billions of caregivers across the world have blazed the trail. Start EC with my book today and you will not regret it.

And remember…toilet training is time-consuming
and lacks convenience no matter when you begin.
You may choose to start today or just wait 2-3 more years…
I’m certain it will still be there once all that time passes. :)
