DiaperFreeChallenge 3:The Next Step

DiaperFreeChallenge 3: The Next Step Checklist

If you have been practicing EC perhaps you are ready to take the next step. Maybe EC has been going smoothly and you are ready to go to another level, or maybe your child is in a pause or has hit a plateau and you feel the next step will be the boost you both need. Either way, there are several different ways you can challenge yourself with the Next Step.

- Talk to your child about going diaper-free

- Plan for how to clean up misses

- Strategically place potties for accessibility


Nighttime

- Potty your child before bed

- Try offering the potty when your child wakes at night
