This month we’ve taken a big step with EC’ing – Galen is going diaper free at night. It has been an interesting experience thus far, and a pretty good one Now that our big kids are dry all night I felt a little more enthusiastic about working with Galen at night.
I began by [...]
I had an old flannel sheet lying around. And some leftover fabric from making pajamas. I decided to use these to make an attempt at my own trainers for Galen. I really enjoy sewing, and I really want Galen to be comfy and used to wearing pants/undies. So I decided I’d use what I had [...]
I’m getting this update in late – Galen turned six months old two days ago. But my dad came up for a visit since he wasn’t able to come with my mom after Galen was born, and spending time with Granddaddy (and awesome Daddy) trumped all writing!
So I’ll give an update on how things [...]

This is the first audio Natural Birth and Baby Care has offered and it took me a bit of time to get [...]

Later this month ECwear.com’s owner Marija and I are going to be to be doing a [...]
Elimination Communication is still going really well with Galen. I’ve been surprised looking at my site’s statistics – my update pages on Galen have been getting a lot of visitors. I’m glad to know that sharing our experiences with Galen may be helping some other families out there
Galen has had some fussy days [...]
Galen is 11 weeks old now and we’ve been EC’ing since his first days. I am really, really glad we made the choice to use elimination communication. Galen does not have dirty diapers. It’s such a blessing! I’m still awed by the fact that he goes when I set him over the potty bowl or [...]
EC’ing Galen from birth has been a nice adventure for us. We’ve planned to EC (use elimination communication) since my pregnancy – and I EC’d with Cassidy from 6 months and with Brennan from 1 week. So it wasn’t completely new to me. I still intended to take it easy and not worry about it [...]
