EC Milestones for my 5 month old!

I haven't been super consistent w EC w my new tiny but now that she is bigger and not as "floppy", it's a bit easier. The other day, she poo'd on cue in the potty! And she is old enough now that she was aware of what she was doing! Yay!
It was also the day we started using cloth diapers! So it was a very exciting day for us!!

Elimination Communication with my now two year old!

After bringing home our second born when our toddler was about 20 months old, she had a bit of a digression with the potty.  For the most part, she still did well but she went from being almost completely out of diapers to needing them almost always.

I am happy to report that we are once again out of diapers (except sleep times)!  She finally has gotten to the stage of being able to get herself on her little potty so I just have that out for her and when we are at home, she just wears undies for easy access.  I have tried this before and it worked okay but she kept wanting to play with the potty (yuck) so I didn't keep it out unless I could closely monitor her.  Now I just keep her potty out and she will go then tell me!  It's quite exciting lol

She does still "play" with the potty but instead of touching it w her hands, knocking it over, etc, now she actually will take down her undies and sit on it just to sit on it, which isn't a big deal :)

With sleep times, I don't know if I will ever "train" her or just wait until she is ready to get out of bed, go potty, and get back in bed all on her own.  She is a great sleeper and I don't want to mess with that.  I have heard from many mamas that their little ones started waking up w dry diapers, no training necessary.  So I figure I will just wait and see but please comment any suggestions you may have about it!

Disclaimer:  When we go out, I put my daughter in pull-ups.  I NEVER recommend pull-ups BUT since I also have an infant that I wear, I can't always get my toddler on the potty in time.
