It worked for me!

We started when my son was around 1 month old. He's been cueing us to take him when he has to go as of a couple weeks later. What's even better- we do it part-time. If we're at the park or out-and-about, he's come to understand that he has to go in the diaper- but we always go potty at home. He's never had diaper rash and we've got a great system. There's no doubt in my mind that as soon as he can physically get himself to the potty himself, he will. He even tries to hold it if I'm slow to respond!This is so much easier & nicer than "conventional" toilet training!

It Really Works!!!!

The whole idea of infant potty training seemed crazy until i thought about all those countries where no one uses diapers. Sure, it's a little different here, but the basic principles are still working. We decided to do attachment parenting, which has made it easier to infant potty train. My 3 month old goes diaperless everynight. Days when we stay home, he goes diaperless. I won't say there aren't a few accidents, but i will say it's amazing how few of them there are. This whole process depends on the parents putting in a lot of care and being really patient. We started at around 3 weeks old and now our son cues us on when to take him to the potty. He pees in public restrooms, in the bathroom sink, and in our baby bjorn potty (which is great for a 3 month old!).There is a much larger (and more expensive) book out by the same author on the same subject, but that book really isn't all that necessary: this book covers it all. All you need to know to do it if you are sure you want to do it. If you aren't sure, the other book "Infant Potty Training" will convince you that it can be done. I've heard that most babies who are trained as infants take themselves to the potty as soon as they can walk...well, we'll see about that!
