Movie Reviews of Potty Whispering: The Gentle Art of Infant Potty Training
Movie Review: Great Primer
Summary: 4 Stars
I read Diaper Free Baby while I was still pregnant and became intrigued by the concept of Elimination Communication. I began giving my sons "potty-tunities" when he was only 3 weeks old and have been having tremendous success ever since! As described in DFB and this video, some babies are better signalers than others. It turned out that our little guy would usually yell right before peeing and he HATES being wet. He was the perfect candidate for EC'ing! I bought this video when my son was about 3 months old and, by then, it didn't add very much to the knowledge I'd already gained. However, I recommend this video to anyone who hasn't already started on their potty whispering journey. There is tons of footage showing babies happily eliminating on a potty that I imagine would have seemed really amazing to me had I not experienced it with my own child so many times already. It's a shame that they use the term "potty training" because it gives people the wrong impression. As clarified in the video, you're not exactly "training" your baby to do anything - and the process is in NO way coercive. Instead, you are learning your childs signals to keep him comfortable. Your baby has powerful instincts that tell him peeing and defecating all over himself isn't natural. Just think about this! In the wild, such behavior would quickly attract predators. Unfortunately, the conveniences of modern society have led many parents to ignore their babies' signals which, in my son's case, CLEARLY indicate a desire to eliminate outside his diaper. There's not a lot of new information in this video for someone that's already read a book on this subject. However, if you don't live near an EC support group, it's worth watching this just to see it in action. Even though I don't feel like I learned much from this, it felt good seeing footage of other families practicing EC. I don't know anyone that uses this technique and it was comforting to see I'm not the only person doing it.
