"Potty trained" from birth. Rare occurrence or natural ability?

[khatty]

The Diaperfree website has a list of great books on the topic.  I've read all of them, but I read Ingrid Bauer's book first and acquired the most/best information from that book.  I EC'd my first daughter starting at 6 weeks and my son starting at birth.

The more I do it, the fewer misses I have, it does get to be second nature and seems normal after awhile.  At first my partner was reluctant, but then he discovered he would much rather take a baby to the potty than clean a diaper!

Here is the link to the list of books:http://www.diaperfreebaby.org/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=1

I am a mom of 5 and love the idea of EC but all my kids are under 5 and I do not have the time that I think i need to teach her. or them about it.
We started training early with my olders and 3 of them are potty trained. My newest is 4 months today and I am really trying to do EC with her please sehare any helpful tips for pee as that is my bigest miss. thanks I wish it worked for older babies we had a hellish pregnancy with the las one and I got lazy with training my 4th so he is almost 2 and not trained yet!!! > anyway I hope he learns soon as all my others were clean and dry consistantly by 18months

My advice for a 4 month old would be to get a bunch of potties and put them all over the house. I resisted this because I wanted my baby to use the toilet but when I finally did a 5 months I doubled the number of catches. I confuse signals a lot so we re on and off the potty 3 or 4 times for every catch and I would get sick of taking her to the toilet and then miss. When it is right in front of mI do better. Other than that sped lots of time in a cloth diaper with no cover or naked and good luck. We do not catch all the pees but I tell myself that is not the point. I want her to kow that she can go in the toilet as well as a diaper so the transition to toilet only will come naturally.

I think this can work with my grandaughter. Can any one that started EC early enough tell me what type of potty do you use, she is so small that i doubt i will find in the market one for her age.
If you can, please send me a link to where i can find one appropiate.
Thanks
