Welcome

Welcome to WeePee Babies, a site about infant potty training for lazy moms. We are moms who try to minimize our impact on the environment whenever possible. But, we are also lazy. We are trying to find realistic ways to cut down on wasteful baby habits while encouraging the natural abilities of our kids. WeePee Babies subscribes to the notion that babies know when they have to "go," and that it is possible to learn a baby's cues so that you, as a parent, can help your baby control when he or she goes. This is known as "elimination communication," and can be practiced in many forms. Part of the idea is that by diapering your baby, you teach him/her to ignore his/her natural awareness of elimination, and then at two years old, you re-teach the baby to pay attention. Seems silly, no? So by paying a little attention now, you can take advantage of what your baby already knows, and make potty training come more easily later. We aren't expert Earth-Mother types, just everyday people trying to save time and energy when possible.
