The Diaper-Free Baby: The Natural Toilet Training Alternative
by Christine Gross-loh
from Collins Living
Imagine infants free from painful diaper rash, new parenthood without thousands of dollars wasted in diapering costs, toilet training that is natural and noncoercive, and, most important, happier babies and parents
As Christine Gross-Loh reveals in her progressive, enlightening book, all this is possible and more. Infants are born with the ability to communicate their need to "go," just as they communicate hunger or sleepiness. Gross-Loh, a mother of two children who were diaper-free at eighteen and fifteen months, uses the tenets of "elimination communication," or EC, to teach parents how to identify and respond to their baby or toddler's natural cues.
Unlike the all-or-nothing approach of some parenting books, The Diaper-Free Baby addresses three categories of parents: full-time, part-time, and occasional EC'ers. Parents can practice EC as much or as little as fits their family and lifestyle. A support group within a book, The Diaper-Free Baby also includes inspiring testimonials throughout every chapter. Parents who have successfully practiced EC identify common struggles, share experiences and problem-solving tips, and provide encouragement for those new to the technique. Their motivational stories together with Gross-Loh's practical advice will appeal to all parents interested in a fresh alternative to traditional toilet training.

Potty Training 1-2-3: What Works, How it Works, Why it Works
by Gary Ezzo
from Hawks Flight & Association
Do the math: If a mother averages six diaper changes a day, she'll change 2,190 diapers during her baby's first year. Things improve slightly over the next twelve months. Based on five changes a day, she'll add another 1,825 diaper changes to her score. By the time her child is half- way to her third birthday, Mom will pass the 5,000 mark. That's a lot of dirty diapers! If this mom is you, it's no wonder you might be thinking seriously about potty training.While successful potty training in itself isn't considered a developmental milestone in a child's life, it is nonetheless an important transition for both you and your child. The good news is that potty training doesn't have to be complicated and neither does a book that explains it. Busy moms need a resource that gives them comprehensive information without a lot of unnecessary details and presents them with options instead of a one-size-fits-all program. Potty Training 1-2-3 provides all of that and more. The more is in the results.

Potty Training That's Better for Babies, Parents and the Environment
Up until the 1960s, 95 percent of all children were potty trained by the age of 18 months. Today, this figure has risen to 46 months. The problem with later potty training is that it's more difficult for parents, creates emotional and health problems for children and contributes billions of pounds of unnecessary diapers to our landfills. By bringing the power of the Baby Signs Program to potty training, babies can start toilet training as early as 12 months.
The Baby Signs Potty Training Kit has been field tested by parents with children from 9 months to 4 years old across the country with great success. Jennifer Macris, a mother of a 5 says "I potty trained my four older children before using this program with my youngest son, and I can definitely say that this is the most fun and effective program out there. It works."
About the Baby Signs Program
The Baby Signs Program is the world's leading sign language program for hearing babies. Built upon two decades of research conducted by Dr. Linda Acredolo and Dr. Susan Goodwyn, much of it funded by the National Institutes of Health, the program helps babies use simple signs to communicate before they can talk, thereby decreasing frustration, enriching the parent-child bond, fostering both emotional and intellectual development-and helping babies talk sooner.
