  • #59 Passing the baton

    So you've been doing EC, but your kiddo is not a little baby anymore. Feeling ready to transition from mostly parent-led pottying to truly child-led pottying?

I'll tell you all about how to support your child's potty independence during a time when it is developmentally spot-on.

  • #49 Counting catches and misses

    Would you consider yourself a data-driven individual? Or are you more likely to just observe and "go with the flow"? Maybe you feel like the only way to do EC properly is to record every catch and miss. Maybe just the thought of keeping track of yet another thing with a little baby is overwhelming. In today's episode I want to talk about how to avoid unnecessary pressure, stay focused on the real purpose of EC, and set you up for success.
