My Ds is 6 mo old and we have been doing EC since he was 3 weeks.  I catch most poops and a few pees per day.  Problem is, we are in kind of a rut... where i know he pees in his diaper most of the time but I don't know what...

Have you tried holding him in different positions or letting him pee in places where he might not get nervous?  Try the sink, bathtub, toilet (you can also hold him over the toilet not just sit him on it), the great outdoors,...

I didn't dare NOT nurse DS when he first woke up, at the newborn stage.  He would really protest if I didn't put him to the breast right away. I just watched him really closely and if he showed signs of squirming, pulling at the...

Aw just use a CD with no cover, if you'd like some feedback as to when the pee is happening, and put a pad on your lap if you want to protect your clothing.  Feeding is so important!  There's plenty of time for EC later, once...

yes it's bad if you put too much pressure on them, show your disappointment if they don't succeed, in the past some parents were even abusive to children who had an accident..  It was a good thing when drs started saying, look, if...
