Release Date: 08/06/2024

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

Today we'll talk about a few things you can do to help get your child back on track if they start resisting the potty...and begin pooping their pants after a near-lifetime of not pooping their pants.

#36: A camel

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

Let's talk about what to do when starting elimination communication with a mobile baby who hardly ever pees...and waits for naptime to go. Or, what we call a camel.

#35: Starting but not catching a thing

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

Let's talk about what to do when you've started EC but are having trouble getting a catch. We'll take a step back and talk about two paths that you can take when beginning EC that might help on your journey.

#34: Sleep causing a potty pause

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

Let's talk about what to do when changes in sleep cause a potty pause. I think many parents can relate to a change in sleep routine causing changing in pottying behavior. This isn't easy! But getting back on track is possible, and we'll go over some methods that will help you!

#33: When is baby done?

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

You've put your child on the potty, a little bit has come out, but you're unsure if baby is done. You wait forever and really don’t know if what you’re doing is right. Let's talk about some ways to know when your baby is finished eliminating, and how long is too long to hold them over the toilet.

#32 Easy Catch #4: In's and Out's

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

I refer to easy catch #4 as the Holy Grail of easy catches, because it's the best way to incorporate EC into your routine. Easy catch #4 is all about transition times (when you take your baby out of the car seat, or before you put them in the carrier, or after a bath, etc.) to offer a pottytunity.

#31: How to tell others about EC (and not seem crazy)

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

You're a passionate EC parent. But you still feel a little awkward talking about EC in public or with new parents. Sound familiar? You aren't the only one!

#30 Easy Catch #3: Poop

The Go Diaper Free Podcast

Have you noticed when your baby is pooping? Maybe you hear it, see it, or the look on their face is unmistakable. Whatever cues you in, chances are you're aware of what is about to fill your baby's diaper. Let's talk about what you need to know and the steps to take once the grimacing begins.
