It's honestly shocking how long Pampers has been able to get away with this. The good news is that you don't have to wait a single day to start potty-training! Cultures all over the world start pottying their babies as young as birth using a method called Elimination Communication. This was the norm prior to disposable diapers!
If you'd like to avoid unnecessary diaper rash, blowouts, and potty-training drama, comment SHOW ME. I'd love to DM you my FREE starter guide, which has helped hundreds of parents navigate EC from as young as birth ❤️
*Sources for my claims:
-New York Times, 1999 cites an average potty-training age of 18 months prior to disposable diapers.
-Multiple scientific studies have found that delaying potty-training risks bladder & bowel dysfunction and bedwetting past age five. Full source list included in my book linked in my bio.
