Elimination Communication Benefits – Why EC is Awesome!
I was inspired by a recent post in an elimination communication support group and realized that it's about time I make a list of elimination communication benefits. I'm not usually one to go around trying to convince people to try EC. If someone isn't interested, that's fine by me. But when I do find someone who wants to start pottying their baby, I'm like, "Yippy! I've got lots of tips to share. Here's my blog post on this, and my video on that!".
So it's only fitting for me to have a blog post explaining why elimination communication is awesome sauce. And it is awesome! I'm probably preaching to the choir here. It's more likely you arrived at this page from searching "benefits of elimination communication" rather than "cons of elimination communication". Come on now, who enters that into the search bar, anyway?
If you are one of the wonderful people who helped inspire this post, please leave a comment below sharing your favorite benefit of EC or which benefit originally drew you towards natural infant hygiene. I have a couple personal favorites!

That wraps up our list of elimination communication benefits. Next you may want to read our tips on Starting Elimination Communication or about the connection between Elimination Communication and Breastfeeding.
Great post!! for me its about connecting with our roots, remembering how we use to raise our babies. I love how many benefits EC has!!! <3
Thanks! And thank you for inspiring this post with your question in the support group. When raising my babies I often like to ask myself, “What did people do before these modern inventions and notions?”. We also love the many benefits of EC!
I’m starting to think about starting EC. I never really considered it before, although I’m an EC Peesy subscriber.
I started following for insight on wool diapering and tuned in for the recent how-to series.
Thanks for this fantastic post. I especially like the consistency factor. If I get started, my 15 month old boy and I will bond better. His dad can tell when he’s urinating, which tickles him every time. He lifts a leg up– woof, woof– then goes about his day on all fours.
