#153 Disposables vs compostables vs cloth diapers


Listen Later

Today we're going to have a lively debate: what is the best diaper for elimination communication?

Are disposable diapers okay for elimination communication, or should they be avoided at all costs?

Do you have to commit to cloth diapers to make elimination communication successful? (OMG major overwhelm!)

Do compostable diapers even work? (Or do they fall apart right when the pee hits them?!)

I'm going to unveil the mystery of "which diaper to use for elimination communication" (or infant potty training) right now.

Keep in mind:

  • With elimination communication, diapers are used as a "back-up," not a full-time toilet
  • We are only using diapers for 12-18 months with elimination communication, versus 3-4 years if you're doing conventional toilet training.

With that in mind, let's go through the pros and cons and, at the end of today's show, I'll make my recommendation!
