Yes, it's true - no poopy diapers. My wife used the Elimination Communication Method to Potty Train our little guy from the get go and I've literally only had to deal with 3 poop accidents in 12 months!

Dadlab's has a video on it here:

There's a variety of resources out there on how to do this and here's the winners:

DiaperFreeBaby - international support organization for caregivers who practice EC

EC Simplified - A Website, book, audio, and videos dedicated to teaching parents how to begin using Elimination Communication by my wife, a DiaperFreeBaby Mentor.

You can also read more on Wikipedia about EC.

Summary:
I'm happy to be a stay at home dad with my initial fears assuaged!

We are beginning the process with our little dude Myers. Liz and I have not settled on a specific strategy but we are getting close. So far it's been the run around the back yard and realize you are going to the bathroom strategy. This has brought recognition of bodily functions but has simultaneously rendered the playscape inaccessible to his older brother and sister. I'll keep you posted.

Brad, I'm sure my wife will have some suggestions. I'll pass this along to her. Stay tuned...

ProudPoppa - I'm happy to hear that EC is well and alive in the Dadlabs community - I'd love to read about more of your experiences.

Always good to hear from folks that have made techniques like this work. There is a leap of faith involved here. (Insert poop joke of your choice.)
