Practicing EC Has a Vast Potential to Reduce Your Environmental Impact On a Daily Basis.

Part time elimination communication (EC) simply reduces all aspects of nappy use while enhancing your observation skills and awareness of the basic physical needs of your baby. This understanding soon expands to other areas of your relationship.

Each day you can start afresh with your baby, striving to skip at least one nappy each day. A basic level of consistency will help your baby stay aware of their body and familiar with using a potty so that toilet training is easier.

Let's look at 3 ways practicing part time baby pottying will reduce the ecological footprint of your baby:[/b]

[b]1. Reduce Your Use of Throw Away Nappies
- You'll inevitably use less disposables, even with one potty break each day. Imagine you put a fresh nappy on your baby before a nap. They wake up later still dry (Commonly the need to wee is what makes babies rouse from a deeper sleep). You pop them on their baby potty, sing a Potty Song and catch a wee! You then can put their warm and dry nappy back on, effectively 'saving' a nappy...

2. Reduce Your Washing Load of Real Cloth Nappies
- Some days your baby will wear the usual number of nappies. Other days hardly any. Overall this means fewer nappies will need to be dry pailed, washed and ideally line dried. Your nappies will last even longer, maximising their re-sale value.

[b]3. Reduce Your Need for Other Disposable Products
- Typically families spend $300-$400 on throwaway wipes, then more on plastic nappy bags, more again on throwaway training pants and nappy rash barrier creams. By practicing EC, you will gradually reduce your need for these little financial drains! You'll discover the reusable versions, too, saving even more money, as you can make them from recycled fabrics.

Striving to help your baby wear one less nappy each day is a simple goal to reach for as you practice elimination communication. One less nappy daily means over 1000 fewer nappies used over 3 years, though you will probably save more than that! At the same time, you have a new fun activity to 'play' with your baby.

By dabbling in Elimination Communication there are many ways you can gradually reduce the eco footprint of your baby.

Practicing EC offers you a way to focus those efforts on communicating with your baby, setting a more ecologically sustainable example of flexible nappy choices for the future to friends and family. Discover more about this ancient practice at Part Time Nappy Free
