Just got my one month old to pee AND poop in the potty ☺ #godiaperfree

One month or one year

@mama.ally2009, one month. We are practicing elimination communication. She gives cues and I respond. Basically she tells me when she needs to go

Dang girl and I'm over here bragging about my son taking his diaper off to pee😂

🤔🤔

@bebefever94, you being serious? She's 4 weeks old and she tells you when she wants to go? My boy is 19 months and he's only now starting to realise

@mummyto2boys, she grunts when she about to poop it’s a warning sign and she pulls her legs up to her belly that’s when I know to set on on the potty. She loved she smiles

The "smiles" is gas 😉

@0814mja, lol yes sometimes other times she smiles while I’m praising her she is in the responsive smile stage now it’s not always just reflex

Please let your 4 week old be a baby 👍.... Believe me there's more than enough time to potty train them. You only have a newborn for a short period of time and you WILL miss it.

@bebefever94, I'm pretty sure she isn't letting you know when she needs to go, I'm sure it's not even possible her pulling her legs up my son used to do that when he had trapped wind

@mamabear33016, hahah! My 19month boy don't tell me but he's starting to grab his nappy and go ewww so hopefully won't be too long until I can potty train but jeehz 4 weeks old like that's gotta be a world record or something 😂

This has to be a joke 😶

Stop trying to potty train your newborn, let them be a kid for just a bit longer 😂😬😬😬

@csavvy, 🙌🏻

@bebefever94, I swear you need to come over if I can stop my month old to stop pooping at 2am all over the place during diaper changes that would be a blessing

@0814mja, what does pooing your pants have to do with being a baby/child? I could poop my pants if I wanted to but it’s not comfortable to sit in and would stink up the place. What do you think humans did before diapers? Before letting your kid sit in their own waste became convenient? @csavvy

Just can't believe this 😂

When did I say let your newborn sit I their own waste??? Cause I have 4 kids and I changed them as soon as they poop/pee.

@idontwant2bapie, it’s a whole lot of work busting my ass to buy diapers. It’s a lot of work to comfort my baby when her ass is chapped and blistered from sitting in poop for just a little bit because her skin is sensitive

See I need your take on this. We thought it would be funny since my son always watches daddy use the bathroom and stands in front of the toilet to do it. Butttttttt every since he actually peed in the toilet, he takes off his diaper and squats anywhere to pee. I think i created a monster😥

@0814mja, again I ask what shitting yourself has to do with the enjoyment of childhood?

Just wondering when do you plan on #goingdiaperfree?

@idontwant2bapie, 👍🏽 parent yours and ill parent mine deal?

@0814mja, when she is ready but I’m not gonna wait years to introduce her to a Toilet

You do you. I'm just saying enjoy your newborn will she's tiny.

@idontwant2bapie, well with people trying to say I’m taking childhood from my baby by giving her aka head start it’s offensive this isn’t just something I came up with. It’s practiced method by many parents all over the country

Thanks love❤🤞🏽hopefully it works @idontwant2bapie

@0814mja, I will thank you. We do plenty of other activities baby related other than playing in her poop lol don’t worry

@csavvy Do you have to go potty or are you tired from running in heels? Or maybe you want a snack? 🤔🤔

@bebefever94 Ha I would hope you dont play in her poop 👍👍🙄

Plus babies wear nappies as they have no control on peeing and pooping! It isn't for them to sit in there own shit, I change my boy as soon as he poops it can be done don't make them any more forward honestly I just think in my opinion your wasting your time

@juggalette, she pulls faces and grunts when she needs to poop 🤔

@mummyto2boys, that’s fine have your opinion this post wasn’t to persuade anyone to do this my daughter just did something I’m proud of so I decided to share I really don’t care anybody thinks about it

@mummyto2boys, Yes just like she bites her hands when she’s hungry and guess what I do I feed her so when she grunts and pulls up her legs guess what you need to do poops I holder of the toilet so that she can do that she can’t feed her self but I’m not gonna let her go hungry just like she can’t walk to the toilet I’m not gonna let her crap herself oh well

@mummyto2boys But but babies grunt and make all kinds of different faces 🤔🤷‍♀️

@bebefever94, let them hate. Everyone parent different codos to you mama! You can read your daughters faces and sounds that amazing!! Seriously I read about elimination communication this is the first. My littles grunts for everything, when I change him, pick him up, when he’s waking up. I wouldn’t have a clue how to read those signs.. again 👏🏽 bravo. Practicing cues and reading your baby has nothing to do with babyhood! Ladies! This mom is too cool! Also I do agree even a little moment after baby poops he gets red. Sometimes I don’t catch it.

@0814mja, guess I just know my child 🤷🏽‍♀️

@0814mja, it's madness

@mama.ally2009, right I understand that every baby is different and some babies grunt just to grunt but my child will only grunt when she has to poop that is the only time I’ve ever noticed that she does that I didn’t slap her on the toilet right out the womb but I do watch for her cues for things such as feeding going to the bathroom and being tired just so that I can understand and better meet the needs of my child I don’t understand what’s so wrong with that but like they said I’ll just keep “doing me” I’m happy and my baby is happy and that’s all that matters

Do you stay up all night to watch for her cues?

@bebefever94, absolutely! I now feel so absent minded. I wish I could learn my sons cues. Potty training needs to happen soon for my 1 year old!

@0814mja, babies usually cry or wake up before they poop.. I know my son does. He hates diapers. He would rather shit when I’m changing him

@0814mja, yes I breastfeed and she poops about 30 min-hour after feedings so when I’m up in the middle the night to feed her I stay up for a bit after to help her go. Never said she can’t have accidents or never poop in her diaper but I would like to help her avoid being uncomfortable for any amount of time

I've heard about elimination communication before but I thought you started it at like 12 months. Was i wrong??

@mama.ally2009, yes babies sometimes end up in a poop routine especially if breastfed.

if you want to learn more I can send you the site I follow. You don’t even have to do it every time but I believe early introduction is key. They are sponges this young they are watching everything babies are smarter than we give credit for

Never mind reading different articles and each recommends a different age. Some start from birth.

@unagie, you can start as soon as your baby starts to show you cues

I personally see where both sides are coming from TBH. But the fact is, everyone is going to do what they want with their children. Nothing anyone TELLS someone to do or not to do, is going to make a difference if they don't want to hear it, and their content in their decisions. I'm an open minded person. I personally wouldn't do that, but THAT'S ME, that's not her! Every parent is different, as well as every parents style! Nobody should judge another parent, or tell them what will or won't work for them and their child. Even if it seems Bazaar to some of you, that's @bebefever94’s decision... Straight up... This is her first child, she'll make mistakes, she'll make good decisions as well, and she'll have a journey ahead of her... Who are we to tell her, what to do with her life or child? Yes I understand y'all's way of thinking too, but if this is what she wants to do, STOP SHAMING HER FOR IT, and trying to persuade her! That's just real....IJS....

@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-seconds-mommy, thank you. I never posted this with the intention of starting a debate. I just had a proud moment as a parent trying something new. If anyone was curious about it I would share info. I didn’t know this was a thing until recently and thought it was weird initially but after trying it and noticing a difference in my baby skin I am glad to have tried it and will continue doing it. It wasn’t to offend anybody who didn’t want to do it or who diapers their child’s full time

@mamabear33016, then quit replying? No one asked you to comment I’m not effecting you or your family

I stopped reading tje comments because ppl are just being assholes. Do what you want to! Its yur baby. Its not hurting her so who gives a fuck. Ppl piss me off.

@mamabear33016, what? Lol you sound ridiculous I did not think that me letting my kid poop where poop is meant to go would be a huge issue would people ask questions sure and I’d be happy to answer them but did I think my decisions as a mother would be put on trial? No because I thought we could all be adults who have opinions lol and this is my post so you can get off of it if you are unhappy or start your own lol

@idontwant2bapie, I said I don’t wanna let my baby sit in shit. Not for 30 sec not for a min not for 30 min

@mamabear33016, be ignorant that’s fine I didn’t ask you not to be

@mamabear33016, you are making your own conclusion cause I could care less what you do with your child. What I can’t figure out is why you care so much about what I’m doing with mine

@bebefever94 people are just opinionated and sensitive girl.... You said nothing wrong! I can see how it can shock people, as I've never heard of this method, but I'm sure TF not going to shame you for it, or make you feel like you are doing something wrong...

@caseysmommy92 real ass shit

Here’s the site for all you who

Think I’m some weirdo hack. Do your research. http://godiaperfree.com

@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-seconds-mommy, 0 to 100 real quick I’m honestly fucking confused. But oh well. Lol

@mummyto2boys lmaoo my 18 month old also makes a face and brings me another diaper lol

@bebefever94 can you send me the article you're using? I heard about this but would love to learn more!

@mamabear33016, you don’t read apparently

@leowifey, here’s the site dear http://godiaperfree.com

@maya......, lol the little girl I nannies used to be like let’s go upstairs! Cause that’s where her changing table was whenever she pooped

She wasn't insinuating y'all let your kids play in their shit y'all, she's just saying that when possible, she don't want her baby pooping in the diaper due to diaper rash, and introducing the toilet early, I get that It may seem crazy to you ladies, but it's her baby, her decision. You guys are being way over sensitive right now.

Well the good news is you’ll probably have sculpted biceps after all the dangling of your baby over the toilet waiting for them to poop. Those static exercises are great for toning.

Yes I didn’t mean literally play directly in poop I mean that babies play with poop in their pants cause cues can be missed or ignored but if that’s your choice cool i just choose different

@csavvy 😂

@bebefever94 lol thanks! Sorry I just got to the link you posted earlier.

Btw, I think you are amazing for being able to do this. It must take a ton of attention, patience, learning, and cleaning supplies to even attempt this method! You're being super mom to your newborn and it was all I could do to be functional with my son at that age! 💪crushing it!

omg your poor baby! i thought this was a joke! seriously if your baby has a rash. use diaper rash cream, get a different brand of diapers.. my god ladies on this app crazy as fuckk!!

some ladies dont need to breed 🤦🏻‍♀️

@csavvy, I don’t “dangle” her I sit her on the edge of the toilet she can hold her own head and I support her back for her. She sits like any other kid

@bebefever94 awee so cute

@leowifey, thank you dear. I appreciate the kind words

@atyaf01, I’ve tried many different brands and creams even prescription this has been our only relief

@bebefever94, how the hell you tried all the brands that fast? god so fucking stupid

@atyaf01, because I got a bunch of different ones at my baby shower.

It's her daughter! Don't tell someone else how they should parent.

I refused to take this post or the OP seriously. I’m just going to laugh it off as a nice joke. Thanks girl! You are the MVP

Wow there r some real immature women commenting on this. As mother's we shouldn't be tearing each other down but lifting each other up for the small successes we have. Shame on all of u hateful women. If u don't like it move on. She isn't hurting her daughter and may actually be giving her a head start. Diapers r hella expensive and if she can save just one a day that adds up. This app used to be such a supportive place and now u can't post anything with out getting attacked. Stop being so hateful to other mom's just cuz they don't mother the same way u do.

@bebefever94, your baby is only a month old. In order to have tried so many different brands of diapers and creams, you must be switching it up fairly often. That in itself could be irritating her skin. Rx creams sometimes take time to work and clear rashes up. Be patient. If this works for you, great.

Is this your only child?

😂 this is hilarious. @bebefever94, when are you expecting your newborn to be fully trained? Honest question. It just seems like more work for you when your child will most likely eventually just be fully trained around the normal age.

@csavvy, she’s 7 weeks old and yes

@modom16, never said she had to be fully potty trained just that we are doing introductions

@bebefever94, if you would stop breeding, that would be great

@bebefever94, can I ask are you going back to work? Do you plan on doing this evrytime she needs to pee and poo what about when she's like 6/7 months you still gonna do it until she can do it herself?

@atyaf01, nah imma have 10 more 🙄

@atyaf01, that's not on at all, it may be absolutely crazy! But saying shit like that is wrong!

@bebefever94, regardless, that’s still very young to have tried so many different brands. If you’re wanting to go with this method, more power to you. But if you’re doing it solely because her skin is sensitive and you don’t want her to be in pain, don’t give up on diapers too easily. It took me until dd was 6 months to find a brand that worked for her, she also has very sensitive skin.

She never gets rashes anymore, and she was super prone to them as a newborn.

@bebefever94 girl don't sweat them... You know what you got going... They're not raising your child, they're not paying your bills, rent, putting clothes on y'all's backs, or food in y'all's bellies... Let them just talk their shit, and think their right about everything, and continue doing what you feel is best for your child! There's no such thing as a perfect parent... Straight TF up....

@mummyto2boys, nopeee not wrong at all! crazy people dont need to breed 🤷🏻‍♀️

@mummyto2boys, I’m a nanny. She comes to work with me. And yes I plan to try and get her to the toilet every time I notice her going. Poop is the main concern if she pees no harm but we will keep practicing. Not like these a punishment or scolding for her going in the diaper and it’s not like I’m taking diapers away from her I just want her to have another option. I was potty trained at 18 months as my mother did something similar.

@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-seconds-mommy, yeah there isnt such thing as a perfect parent but there is something as a dumbass parent!

@atyaf01, im sorry are you a certified doctor? I’m crazy? Do I get a certificate?

you’re a nanny!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@lillyb yes yes yes yes yes OMG preach that shit sister!

@bebefever94, yeppp you do 🙂

dont need to be a doctor to know stupid

@atyaf01, I really hope your children don’t grow up to be as close minded as you that would be a shame

@atyaf01, it is very wrong! And it's her way of bringing her baby up it's her first she may think FUCK this a few weeks down the line as she's making to much work for herself but thats down to her! I think it's mental and could never imagine a newborn using a Potty but there we are saying shit what your sayin is not on! Why shouldn't she be Able to have more kids because of the way she parents got nothing to do with you

@atyaf01, yup been helping to raise these children for 4 years.

@bebefever94, its okay let them be closed minded 🙂 you keep potty training your newborn 🤣🤣🤣

@mummyto2boys, so if theres a bad mom she should keep breeding? 🤔

@mummyto2boys, people don’t seem to get this is just something I trying. That it may or may not be along term thing or something but I PLAN to keep trying. Honestly I feel like a mom and who decided to formula feed instead of breastfeed just being bashed for not doing the norm. My baby is NOT being hurt by any of this

@atyaf01, okay thanks 😁

@atyaf01, BUT HOW IS SHE A BAD MUM? She's not hurting her baby or leaving her baby go hungry that's a bad mum! Now why don't you just fuck off

@bebefever94, I agree! I think it's bonkers to be honest but more for you for trying! But I understand your child isn't being hurt and that other mum is being a wanker

@bebefever94 just ignore them girl!! Maybe disable your comments.

@mummyto2boys, I totally support your opinion to think it’s a crazy idea lol

@bebefever94, it is crazy in all fairness but doesn't make you a bad mum haha

@mummyto2boys, well thank you. I love my child dearly and wouldn’t do anything I thought wouldn’t be good for her long term

I don’t think you’re a bad mom at all nor does this indicate whether you should have more children. You’re not harming your child in any way, it’s just a bit taboo.

If it works for you, great! I still think it’s a bit ridiculous, but you do you.

I am turning off the comments if anyone is genuinely curious about what I’m doing or would like more info on trying themselves privately message me. Haters will be block 🤷🏽‍♀️ happy parenting lovies ❤️
