Thinking of teaching my little one to pull down her pants but she’s quite small- What’s the smallest brand of pull-ups you know of?

I’ve been doing EC since 4 months, now 14 months. I’m tired of hovering / squatting awkwardly at the toilet and she’s been less inclined to go at her normal times too (pushes and cries so I don’t force her) but still some catches.
What’s the next step? I have a seat she could climb but the hole is too big for her little bum, and a little potty but wouldn’t I have to retrain her for the big toilet eventually? Idk
Just what’s next?

Potty training
I’ve been doing a lazy version of EC with my daughter (now 13 months) since she was 4 months. I put her on the potty after sleeping/naps and when she is obviously about to poo.
I’m wondering how we advance from this to full potty training and when? She’s just taking her first steps so can’t walk to the potty by herself yet and doesn’t know the sign (we’re trying to teach her, she sometimes uses the “all done” sign instead 🤪)

My little one is nearly 12 weeks & we'd like to start, just want to check I have it right that we're going to sit him on the potty before/after naps/sleep & feeding, before/after bath - does anyone have any other advice or tips? Also, he was 4 weeks premature, will this matter? Thank you!

I read a lot of tips online as to how to begin EC, but I’d love to hear what worked for all of you? Such as schedules, the signs, how to hold the baby, etc. I have a three month old baby boy.
Thank you all in advance !
