Today\u2019s episode is a guest post from Go Diaper Free Certified Coach Tracy Gillett, who blogs at Raised Good and teaches parents EC (and many other things) in the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada. Here\u2019s an excerpt:

\u201cI read about Elimination Communication (EC). It blew my mind. I remember my husband\u2019s raised eyebrows when I told him about it. Was this a step too far? Could a helpless little baby seriously pee in a potty?

But it made sense. And it felt natural. After all we\u2019re the only species in the animal kingdom using diapers. It didn\u2019t take much to convince us. We were intrigued and had to try it.

But something I read didn't make sense. The suggestion was that the most important element of EC isn't actually potty training but, communication.

What were they talking about?, I wondered.

In our fast paced, have-everything-now world, isn\u2019t the purpose of EC to reach potty independence quickly? To reach the finish line, avoid misses, and get out of diapers as soon as humanly possible?\xa0

\xa0

That\u2019s what I assumed. But I was wrong.\u201d
