new to EC with my 10-month old

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Hello!
I'm new here, so I thought I would introduce myself. I'm Andrea, from Nova Scotia, Canada. My son Alden will be 10 months old next week. I wish I had looked into EC months ago, but oh well, we'll start tomorrow. We've been cloth diapering since he was a few weeks old, we use prefolds or fitteds with bummis covers or wool covers, and usually pocket dipes at nights.
I'll take a look through past threads to learn more before I ask a million questions, but here is one basic concern/question:
-I babysit a 15-month old and an 18-month-old, as well as mothering Alden, of course. It's pretty busy (chaotic!) around here, and I'm concerned that I won't be able to watch him close enough to learn/catch his cues and so on.
Looking forward to learning more and getting started!

Hi Alden's Mom! Welcome! There used to be a sticky where we introduced ourselves, but it went away when they streamlined things. With your babe, I'd say just watch him when you can and talk about it and change as soon as possible when you have the other little ones around. The awesome thing about EC is that it doesn't have to be all-or-nothing. Enjoy!!!
