Ec probably is the smartest way to do it, but I'm not good at picking ques etc.. I should have a read up on it for bub #2
you'd be surprised at what you learn about your child when you give yourself no other option When I got rid of the 'back up' nappy we made much more progress within days than we had been in months. Having the nappies was affording me the luxury of not paying as much attention. If anyone's interested in more anecdotes from a few of us who do it, there's a chatter thread on EC here. It's all about learning (both of you), not about being good at it to start with it
