Sorry i just couldn't resist the pun.
I am in need of some ideas and inspiration.
ds has ec'd with us since week one. He used to give us a little squirt every time we asked. He was always changed as soon as i noticed he was wet and given lots of opportunities to "go". he only occasionally signals, mostly when out in public or in your lap. he very rarely goes when in a wrap, and when out and about. it is mostly at home that we are in a constant state of miss.
when we were also on vacation we used the disposable pullups, and they were great. We usually had fitted cloth diaper backups. but now i have decided to get waterproof cloth trainers for out of the house and use pants or undies when in the house.
HE hates being changed so the pants are easier to put on than diaper but he still wrestles with me. he would be nakey but at home but it is too cold.
he has started resisting the potty opportunities, no problem you don't have to go now... so i will put his pants on, go put laundry in washer and come back, he is wet. ok offer potty put new pants on, take two things down to basement, come check him, he is wet. and it goes on like this....
except one morning we went out to breakfast and it wasn't too cold so i was able to off the potty we keep in the back seat. he was dry and in one diaper until after 12.
What am i missing, any inspiration, hints. thanks.

eca-pants- they go on without a struggle, most of the time!) You can try to make potty time more fun and interesting. Or try backing off and just offering at obvious times. We started with EC during the first week also, had an amazing stretch of few misses her first summer and fall, and then her first winter things went nutso and stayed that way for a long time!!!
