008 / Can Babies Really Be Potty Trained Before 1? Day in the Life with Elimination Communication at 11 Months

If you’ve ever wondered…

• “What is elimination communication actually like day-to-day?”
• “Am I signing up for something stressful or unrealistic?”
• “Can babies really be potty trained before 1?”

This episode answers that—honestly.

In this behind-the-scenes, real-life walkthrough, I’m taking you through a full 24 hours of doing elimination communication (EC) with my 11-month-old baby.

You’ll hear exactly what it looks like:

• How babies signal they need to go (and how to recognize it)
• What nights, mornings, and outings actually feel like
• How EC works with a nanny, work schedule, and multiple kids
• What changes as your baby becomes more independent
• Why EC gets easier, not harder, over time

I also break down one of the biggest misconceptions about EC:
👉 That it adds more work to your life

In reality, when you understand your baby’s communication, everything becomes simpler, calmer, and more connected.

Whether you’re:

• Pregnant and curious about starting from birth
• A few months in and unsure if you’re “doing it right”
• Or starting later and wondering if it’s too late

This episode will show you what’s possible—and what to expect.
