What is EC?

What is EC? Empty What is EC?

Post by Kasia80 Fri Jul 04, 2008 9:52 am

EC is based on the fact that babies know when they need to eliminate, and that they are born with the ability to communicate this need. If we are to believe that God created babies with the ability to let us know how to meet their needs (hunger, sleep, holding etc.) then why should we believe that He didn't also make them able to let us know they have to potty. This form of communication has been used in other countries forever, and is still widely used in countries like China and Vietnam today. It is best started with babies under 6mo. Older babies are harder as they have been "trained" to eliminate in a diaper. However, people have had success using EC with older babies as well. Most babies who are listened to from birth, take over their own elimination needs by 18mo. (some earlier, some later) and the best part is that not only have they not had to sit in dirty diapers for most of their short life, but they have been given an added bit of respect as well.
