[quote=Anonymous]I actually looked into and tried elimination communication. That ended because I couldn’t deal with triple feeding and “observing” which resulted in my baby pooping all over everything in the midst of triple feeding. The few times she went in the potty wasn’t worth the massive pain… Then I read this perspective which made sense to me. https://visiblechild.com/2015/09/20/toilet-training-in-one-simple-step/ So I’ll probably go this route instead. There is a urologist whose research showed that training too early is a risk for withholding and constipation which can lead to urinary jncontinence (from distended rectum pressing on bladder) in vulnerable children. So there can be downsides to too early. But some children are ready at two so if your kid is I wouldn’t hesitate but other kids aren’t ready til almost 4 and I wouldn’t endure months of torture after age 3 just because you think it should be done at 3 either.
