Is there a way to get your baby out of diapers faster than waiting for conventional potty training “readiness” and an ultra stressful three-day weekend?
In this episode of Held and Heard, we’ll question some of our most basic assumptions about babies, diapers, and potty training—and look at what might change when we approach these everyday parts of motherhood with more intention.
We’ll talk about what previous generations may have understood that modern parenting culture has forgotten, why the timeline we’ve come to accept for potty training isn’t necessarily inevitable, and the biblical motherhood principle that totally transformed my potty training strategy after three babies of my own.
If you’re pregnant, caring for a newborn, navigating the early postpartum months, or simply wondering whether potty training really has to be as difficult as everyone says it is, press play.
Because there’s one simple shift that can completely change the way you think about your baby and diapers—and once you see it, you’ll never look back.
