call me crazy

Audrey is going to start using a potty to go to the bathroom. She woke up dry 3 out of the last 4 nights and is very interested in playing/sitting on the toilet. We had picked up a little potty chair at a garage sale for at Grandma & Grandpa's house. We will bring that one to there house when her new one arrives in the mail. :) Again, I maybe crazy but I'm willing to try. We have a system down that she will sit on the potty when she wakes up in the morning, before lunch, after nap, before dinner, and before bed time. Now this is just our first attempt at this...there is another method that seemed rather interested to me where you let your baby be naked at home to learn to see the signs of when they need to go to the bathroom (bouncing, fidgeting, rocking...ect). After you learn those signs, every time you see them doing the signs...you bring them to the potty. Strange.

I was starting to think I was crazy for trying this at an early stage, but the more researching I've done....the more normal I feel. There is actaully a thing called "Elimination Communication" where you virtually potty train your baby from birth. Weird, but so fascinating to me! If you know nothing about it (as I didn't), google it...you can learn something new today.
