Elimination Communication With Your Baby

Ever wonder what it means to use elimination communication or EC with your baby?  Andrea Olson, mom and author (and tum e time class graduate) has made it easy with her new book EC Simplified.

These are her thoughts on what EC means:

"There are many different definitions of the phrase, but below is my summary version:

a gentle, non-coercive way to respond to
a baby’s natural elimination needs, from birth,
which enables her to follow her instincts to not
soil herself, her caretaker, or her sleep space

In other words, babies are born ready. We just need to tune into what they’re born asking for, provide it, stay in good communication, and roll with the evolution until our babies are totally potty independent. (Kinda like with eating and sleeping.)"

If you are researching or already EC-ing, Andrea's website can offer you an array of support and information.
