Elimination Communication/Infant Potty Training
I'm done some EC or Elminiation Communication Training/Infant Potty Training with Tommy and it's going well. Sometimes we can go for a few hours without our diaper and without an accident. And sometimes we get poop and Pee in his potty. Check out my blog for a picture of him on the potty! (The one where he has an ice popsical.)
Basically when I'm home with him I put a diaper on him for naps and when he gets up from a nap he usually has to go potty, so I take the diaper off and sit him on the potty, he usually goes then. Then we play with the diaper off till nap time and if I think he need to go I put him on the potty again, sometimes he doesn't go, sometimes he does sometimes we have an accident on the floor, but we have tile, so I just clean it up. If I'm concerned about him having an accident (at someone else house I put a prefold diaper on him with no cover) so I can tell when he went and so can he, but it doesn't get on the floor. When I go out in public I usually put a prefold on him, or if I won't be able to change him right away a fuzzi bunz. Sometimes I'm daring and we go no diaper under clothes, but I"m wearing him in a sling or carrying him the whole time. If he gets figity then he either needs to nurse or go to the bathroom, and we go find a hiding place and I've got my little bucket with me and I put that between my legs and sit him on my lap and tell him to go potty. (we did once out at walmart). I have a zip lock in the portable potty and I just zipped it up and threw it away when I got home. On the days I just can't handle it I put him in fuzzi bunz. It's reduced the amount of diaper laundry where I could wash once a week, but I've learned not to wash that little or I'll grow something in the diapers. So I still wash once a week. (BTW we've always used cloth never a disposable).

Birth Rant, Sick and Gymboree
U.S. has second worst newborn death rate in modern world, report says:
http://www.cnn.com/2006/HEALTH/parenting/05/08/mothers.index/index.html
I'll try to keep this from being a total RANT on birth stuff, but it's hard to leave that stuff out so today I'm posting just this quick link.
Yesterday I slept in as best you can with a almost 10 month old, what that consisted of is moving to the living room with blankets and pillows and letting him play. I was VERY under the weather yesterday.
Despite feeling bad in the AM we both went to a Sign Say and Play class at the Gymboree place in the afternoon. We joined and that's what we will be doing on Wednesday afternoons. We learned the sing for Play (almost like the hook'em horns for Texas, but only thumb and pinky, and then you move them back and forth. Tommy loved the class, and LOVED Bobo the bear that helps them learn to sign.
