What is Elimination Communication?

Elimination Communication (EC) is an ancient practice of tuning in to a baby's elimination patterns and signals and responding to the baby's needs.  In this way, babies can live diaper-free!  Might sound crazy at first, but it's truly a beautiful thing!  Ingrid Bauer is an expert in the field - read more on her website.

Public ECing

It wasn't much, but I peed Elie before and after we shopped at Trader Joe's today in the little entranceway of the store. I just peed him into a disposable diaper. We have a pack from my FIL that we've never used on Elie, but I use for ECing out of the house. That way, it kind of looks like I'm just changing his diaper and I feel less weird about it.
