I just put my 7 month dd on the potty ...(56 Posts)
and she immediately started to bear down and did a huge poo within a minute of sitting there.
I'm a clueless first time mum, my mum told me to sit her on the potty at nappy changes as she did this and I was dry at 12 months. Its the second time I sat her on the potty. I was rather surprised, I'm guessing it has to be a fluke.
I've had no time to read up on this but I heard no attempts until 18 months, it cant do any harm if I continue doing the foregoing this early can it?
My 8 month old does most of her poos on potty and also deliberately wees on it. I dont understand people who say 'whats the point' I mean whats the point in having horrible pooey nappies if there's no need?
I am also hoping it will help with real potty training. Dd1 hated pooing in a nappy and it lead to her being really anxious about going.
Well I took her nappy off 2nd week of August she was 22 months and no accidents until 3 weeks later. That was just last week just a wee. Its fine since. I still put a nappy on her for naps but more often than not it is dry. So I am quite pleased with how it went. I did take the advice to commit, take the nappy off and not put it on again (except for sleeps) so as not to confuse, and I think this really helped although we had about 15 toilet stops the first day and being out for the day, a very hot day and heavily pregnant I was cheesed off but it quickly got less.
How are you getting on now? Ive started my 2.4 year old and he is doing well but just in the house so far and ive just red this, I think you are doing a great job well done!
Just to add that when we did come to potty training, not mega early but at 22 months, there were no accidents. Well I had one wee 3 weeks later but that was all. So I think it made it easier and sped it up a little bit, also we haven't dealt with poos in the nappy since 7 months, well only occasionally - one a month? So cleaner and saved a lot on nappies.
Hi Iburntthecakes. Oh I do not know really. I didn't do anything before 7 months, when she could sit up and I could perch her on the potty whilst I just laid out a fresh nappy etc and nappy change times. When I posted my question I did read about EC having not heard about it before, I watched some online videos etc. and thought - nah not for me! I did not really do nappy free time as such. But I sort of get the point about newborn babies tending to soil at nappy change time because of an instinct not to soil their beds? And this instinct perhaps being lost when we just persist with continuously putting them in nappies.
I am about to have a new baby, I don't think I will start any earlier this time around, I might bear in mind some of the points EC proponents make but I don't think I am brave or eco friendly enough to really go down that route.
Thanks for this thread. It's answered several questions I've had! We've been trying this with DD who is now 7 weeks. I'm amazed how easily she takes to it even though she's so tiny. She tends to poo many times a day but I would say we catch 90% at night and maybe 50% in the day.
Can I ask a question - we're doing an in between sort of EC, using nappies and not worrying if we're out but I'm worried she might get confused about what she's doing. The EC people talk about babies being 'trained' to use nappies and I worry if we do too good a job that she might start being unhappy going in a nappy which is necessary at times. Im not really prepared to do without completely as endless floor cleaning wouldnt really be my thing! It sounds as if you didn't have this problem but I wondered if you had any thoughts about it having had much more experience.
Also, how long did you hold her over a potty - she'll sometimes strain for 10minutes plus and my back doesn't like it so she often ends up back in a nappy and we have to change her again 10 minutes later. Did you find that improved over time?
We have done the same, although from 8 months. She pees first thing in the morning when she wakes up. Some music plays as soon as she pees and seems to love that. She has also pooped once. I also put her on the potty before bath time in the evening.
DH is not interested though (he doesn't take her in the morning when he is looking after her) so I don't think we are progressing, she is just enjoying the music coming from the potty for now.
My friend always started early and it seemed to work for her. Her first was trained before 18 months and her second seems to be getting on well and she is 13 months old now.
We did the same as Sedgie with DS2 he's out of nappies in the day now at 22 months too.
Not difficult at all, and since 8 or 9 months have more or less been able to go out and about without having to change a dirty nappy. We only had wet ones apart from maybe a handful of occasions in all that time. Well worth it!
Good for you the earlier they are comfortable with a potty the better. I am having real problems at the moment with potty training, one of the reason i think is because i have waited too long.
1944girl, exactly what my mum says. She reckons I was dry at about a year, I actually did not believe her thinking she was exaggerating but maybe not.
I think it is a good economical and stress free way which is in between the EC method and the waiting and waiting until they are basically asking to use the loo when they are 2-3 years or older. But to be fair she was practically asking by 22 months, saying 'weewee is coming', so I thought we would be OK. I'm just glad to have it sorted before the next baby is born in a few weeks.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Excellent thread- has inspired me to try with my 9mo dS from tomorrow. He is usually very regular
Just updating to say I was able to get her out of nappies in the day at 22 months with no difficulties and no accidents. I dont meed to remind her ahe asks even if swimming or in the bath. I think it was worth getting her used to the potty early, and saves a bit of money i probably will do the same again with next baby.
iPod also to blame for slimed, should read kind of!
There is a sign for toilet - we do baby sign- it's when you stuck your middle finger out and hold all other fingers in a fist slimed like you're swearing lol and then you point to your shoulder wih hand in that position. If that makes no sense at all, there are websites that show u, on iPod so can't link but you can google BSL sign toilet. I think in ASL the sign is different also, more like waving, but can't remember it as well.
Wow! I've just read your thread and it sounds like you're doing really well. My two are both well out of nappies now, but I wondered if you have thought of baby signing? This is where you sign the word for potty to your baby (not sure if there is an official sign, but you could make one up?) and, hopefully, your baby will learn the sign and sign to you when she needs the potty. We had some success with signing with our daughter when she was little, although sadly we didn't teach her a word for potty. Good luck
Sedgie I've been fOllowing yr progress over the months and I just wanted to say how impressed I am. You've done what i was aiming for, early toilet training rather than full blown ec. The prob I've had is that altho I've been putting 16mo ds on the toilet since he was 8mo - we had a potty pause in that time tho for a couple of months- he still hasn't produced a wee or poo recently ive been putting him on the loo once he's started pooing but then when on loo he stops. still, cleaning him after a poo is so much easier on the toilet than dealing with wipes and cotton wool. So I'm very pleased eith the slow progress we've made. But i do wish he'd just wee or poo on the toilet too!
Hi sedgiebaby, sounds great! Same as rarerthantigers here, DS and DD all poos in potty from tiny, ds out of nappies in day 19mths and DD totally out of nappies 17mths.
As for next steps, I just started to offer potty/toilet at all nappy changes and after naps, like you're doing. Then DD started to still be dry around the time i'd expect to need to change a nappy, so would take her for a wee knowing must have to go, and put the dry nappy back on. I'd do this even if we were out and about, so she got used to using other toilets, and we saved nappies. If I needed the loo myself I'd take take her too, as we were in there! Around 1yr both DC began to be able to say 'wee wee' while going on the potty, and progressed to saying it before started to wee. Once they could communicate things really took off.
If we were staying in I'd leave nappy off most of the time, (couldn't face the battles floydie!) and they began to let me know when wanted to go, or would go and sit on potty themselves. With DD I started to make short trips out to park or school run nappy free if I knew she'd recently had a wee and we'd be 'safe'! Both children never let me know if needed a wee if they had a nappy on, it was like they assumed I wanted them to use it! Bare bum and they would ask to go! Both were dry after naps a while before out of nappies, so I stopped using a nappy at nap times. With DD when got to stage of only 1-2 nappies a day I stopped using them and we take a potette out and about with us. WIth DS it was his nursery who suggested he sounded ready to be taken out of nappies, I didn't really know when to take this step with my pfb !
When we're out DD just usually needs to go when I do, so mostly use toilets. If she doesn't need to go she will not let me undress her or won't sit down, she will never just 'try' for me, like before going out somewhere! I have to trust her!
Floydie the babybjorn potty is small and stable, or a toilet seat insert would be fine at your DDs age- might like being grown up!
Thank you for the encouragement rarer than tigers!
Floydie - I have two but like my plain white poundshop one. Its a nice snug fit! When you try it, my tip is, put her feet flat on the ground to encourage things, and give her something to play with - you just never know she may get it right away or she may jump straight off as happened with my friend but worth a try - why not.
Any recommendation as to the type of potty that would be most comfortable for a smaller tot?
My DSD is 14 months, and detests having her nappy changed with a fiery vengeance (also getting dressed and having nails cut - think the real issue is being restricted - although loves having her teeth brushed) so maybe she might like a go at this.
Would prefer one in a nice colour though - don't like blancmange pink!
Well done Sedgie, I applaud you. How can anyone think it is easier to get squashed poo out of (particularly girls') genitals than to sit a baby on the potty a few times a day? And as you say, the cost, the waste, the soreness...nappy multinational brainwashees, I say.
I too followed my mum's advice and people are astonished time and time again to hear that with each of them (one boy one girl) I barely had to deal with another dirty nappy after 8 months.
My daughter was out of nappies in the day by 2, son by 2.4, but I wasn't so bothered about the weeing really.
Keep up the good work and just pop her on the pot whenever it's convenient for you.
Quick update with us for those who are interested. DD is now 11 months, I started to see that she was only wanting to go for a poo after breakfast and dinner just before her bath, normally she will do a wee as well but I'm not so worried about the wees right now. We also try again after her bath, when she almost always does a big wee. The result being I normally use 3 nappies in 24 hours, just for wees.
As well as cheaper, I find its soooooo much easier and cleaner as she will not keep still when I'm changing her and this isn't fun with a dirty nappy. Not sure of my next steps if anyone has any ideas?! I'm in no hurry but thinking if she starts to be dry after a nap (something I'm starting to notice) I may pop her on the potty at this time also.
I don't think this is 'air on her bits' making her go, because she doesn't wee when she has a bare bum (not that I do much nappy free time, but sometimes or of course when changing) unless she is on the potty.
The theory from hardcore EC is that yes, air on the bits does make them want to go as naturally as young babes they have an inbuilt sense not to soil their mother, as going back to when we were animals young babies would have been carried around all day by the mother & held out away from mother to go to the toilet on the ground, & it is only through more modern ways of civilisation that babies learn to ignore this & have to re-learn it when toilet training - whereas EC capitalises on it in the first place.
Might partly be the sensation of air on her bits.
Nephew was a nightmare to change as everytime the nappy came off he decided to take a wee! HV said that boys have this reaction to the air.
Well done!
My mum also suggested my to start potty training when my baby would sit up straight by himself, I started at 7 month.
Firstly mum advised me to put Daniel on potty after sleeps, and it worked very well.Then when he was 13 month old he refused to sit on potty and I just take off our potty ang give him some time, afterwards we started again.My mum told that I started to use potty at 12 month and my mother in law said the same thing about my hubby.
My son take his time when I put him on the potty if he wanted he wee or poo if not then afterwards he did some nice poo on my kitchen flour.I should say this flour seen a a lot of various poos and wees.
Then I tried other technique I suggested do wee together, I put his potty opposite our toilet and he enjoyed it a lot, afterwards he started to tell when he is ready to do wee.
Now he is 27 month and we use nappies only when we are going out-shopping, museum, playground etc.visits)because it is easier.
Even at night he is dry, the best thing is remind him to do his before sleep wee
There always be people who will think that potty training is impossible so early,also tehre will be people who will think that start potty training at 3 years its too late.Every toddler is different and what work for one will not work for other.
Early potty training will be rewarded afterwards but at the begginig there will be a lot of accidents and wees and poos in very different places.Just take it easy and don't forget to laugh and smile.

Our view: Gun laws are taking a radical turn
When it comes to gun fights, things are pretty quiet on the Potomac these days. Democrats, cowed by the National Rifle Association's political clout, have no taste for pushing gun control up the agenda. And even if they did, the landmark 2008 Supreme Court ruling that the Second Amendment provides a right for individuals to own guns largely leaves them disarmed.
OPPOSING VIEW: Restricting firearms makes us less safe
The states, however, are another matter. Gun rights activists have taken their national victories not as a reason to pat themselves on the back, but as reason to push forward with an agenda that ranges from radical to idiotic.
About Editorials/Debate
Opinions expressed in USA TODAY's editorials are decided by its Editorial Board, a demographically and ideologically diverse group that is separate from USA TODAY's news staff.
Most editorials are accompanied by an opposing view? a unique USA TODAY feature that allows readers to reach conclusions based on both sides of an argument rather than just the Editorial Board's point of view.
Last month, for instance, Wyoming joined Arizona, Alaska and Vermont to become the fourth state to allow concealed firearms with no permit whatsoever. Also last month, Mississippi removed most of the exceptions to its concealed weapons law, allowing people to take guns to sporting events, and into bars, churches, schools and colleges, among other places. Just this month, North Dakota joined more than a dozen other states that have said an employer cannot ban an employee from bringing a weapon to work, so long as it is kept in the worker's vehicle.
Editor's note
Even if you view this as a legitimate exercise of personal freedom, it's hardly wise, or without limitations on the freedom of others. Take the rights of property owners, for instance. Under many of these laws, businesses cannot object to someone bringing a weapon onto their premises.
Pennsylvania, meanwhile, is on the verge of becoming the latest to join the craze of states passing laws described as "stand your ground" by supporters and "shoot first" by critics. These give people who use deadly force in public places many of the same protections they might have in defending their homes from an intruder. They remove an individual's obligation to retreat from a threatening situation if such an option exists. And in many cases they provide a legal defense should he or she kill or injure an innocent bystander by mistake.
What we are seeing is a systematic campaign for a doctrine of guns anywhere, anytime and in the hands of just about anyone, without consequence for irresponsible actions. When the gun lobby first started winning concealed carry laws about two decades ago, it said that vigorous background checks and permitting procedures should be maintained, and that some places should remain gun-free. Having won such laws in most states, it is now working to undo those parameters.
The gun lobby is also going after the two states (Wisconsin and Illinois) that do not allow concealed firearms, and the nine that leave the issuance of a permit to the discretion of law enforcement. In its one major foray into Congress recently, gun extremists fell just two votes shy in the U.S. Senate on a 2009 bill that would have forced any state to recognize a carry permit issued by any other state. That measure — a monumental infringement on states rights and local governance, to say the least — would have forced urbanized states dealing with gangs, drug lords and other violent criminals to essentially adopt gun rights deemed appropriate in more rural states.
These are precisely the kinds of results that opponents of gun rights predicted during the multi-decade debate over the confused meaning of the Second Amendment. From a constitutional perspective, the Supreme Court may have gotten it right. But from a standpoint of public safety, lawmakers are getting it very wrong. A right to keep and bear arms should come with restraints that equally protect those who have no interest in owning them.

AML Model Validation: A Critical Need in the New Regulatory Environment
Product ID: 704227
- 30
- November 2017
Duration: 60 Min
Customer Care
Fax: +1-650-565-8542
Email: email@example.com
This training program will discuss the history and origin of a model validation. It will also discuss the requirements by the OCC for a model validation, and what exactly a model validation should include. The session will also analyze the elements of a model validation to know what to look for in an RFP, and detail the requirements included in Final Rule 504.
Why Should You Attend:
According to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), "banking organizations should conduct a periodic review-at least annually but more frequently if warranted-of each model to determine it is working as intended and if the existing activities are sufficient." This has become known in the industry as a model validation, system validation, independent verification and validation (IVV), or just validation. The challenge we've seen is interpreting this – what is a model, which models, what a "review" should include, etc.
As such we've seen a number of organizations conduct one, either internally or independently, often missing elements to the model that couldn't possibly validate an institution's model without them. Further, pushing regulators to require that institutions repeat their model validation.
This webinar will cover a number of topics: the history of a validation – where it comes from, what it means according to the OCC, what elements should a model validation include, the importance of conducting one, how often one should be conducted, what to look for in an RFP, vendor due diligence and the requirements included in Final Rule 504.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn the history and origin of a model validation.
- Discuss the requirements by the OCC for a model validation, and what exactly a model validation should include.
- Where we're seeing the regulatory pressure to complete a model validation.
- What a sample project plan should look like.
- Cover the elements of a model validation in-depth, so you know what you to look for in an RFP.
- Discuss the importance of statistical data analysis and its importance in the final report.
- Discuss vendor due diligence – how to select a vendor familiar with the in-depth nature of the project, and being able to recognize their independence.
- Review the model validation requirements in Final Rule 504.
Areas Covered in the Webinar:
- The definition of a model validation according to the OCC
- How often a model validation should be completed according to the OCC
- The origin of the term independent verification and validation, and how that relates to today's model validation
- Where the regulatory pressure has been to conduct an AML model validation
- What elements should be reviewed during an AML model validation
- What qualifies as a model validation, and what does not
- What a sample model validation project plan would look like
- Vendor due diligence – selecting a vendor for your AML/BSA projects
- Definition of vendor independence
- Outline the additions in Final Rule 504 as they relate to AML model validations
Who Will Benefit:
- BSA/AML Officers
- Compliance Officers
- Sanctions Officers
- AML Analysts
- Risk Officers
- Legal Departments
- Risk Managers
- CEOs/Presidents at Banks, Broker-Dealers, Money Services Businesses and Other Non-Bank Financial Institutions

Congressional Republicans in general and the more conservative members in particular are already finding life in the president's party a lot more complicated than it was when they could simply throw rocks at the Obama administration and hold hearings on Benghazi and Hillary Clinton's emails.
The challenge for conservatives is that President Trump is not really one of them. He seems predisposed to big spending packages for things like border walls, infrastructure (which, in fact, is badly needed), and an expanded military. He also wants to cut taxes. Since he's unlikely to provide sufficient cuts to offset this drain on the Treasury, we are likely to see soaring deficits, something that turns the stomachs of true conservatives.
It's also not hard to imagine Trump wanting to "prime the pump," goosing the economy with additional spending. Every time he does this, it will cause a dilemma for every Republican member. On the one hand, most didn't run for Congress to pile up more federal debt, and many blasted President Obama on spending for the last eight years. But given that Trump carried the congressional districts of 213 Republican House members (Clinton won 23, and four more are or will soon be vacant as their incumbents take Cabinet positions), voting against his proposals risks attacks from the president, either on Twitter or even at rallies on their home turf. Their ideologies and hearts will tug one way, but their survival instincts will pull the other.
By mid-May, a more detailed 2018 budget should be proposed by the administration. To get that balanced within 10 years, as the candidate promised, would require about $8.5 trillion in spending cuts with another $1.5 trillion tacked on in interest. This summer could see appropriations bills, tax-reform legislation, and some kind of infrastructure package. That doesn't count replacing Obamacare.
Keep in mind that, at some point, an increase in the debt limit will come due, the first that would be passed under unified Republican control of the government in 12 years. Life was so much simpler and easier when Republicans had President Obama to point the finger at, better yet when they could blame Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as well. Metaphorically speaking, the Republican dog has caught the car.
While members of Congress have traditionally hesitated before voting against a president of their own party, that was in pre-Trump days. Trump doesn't play by the Marquess of Queensberry's rules of politics. It's hard to imagine President Reagan or either of the Bushes, even if Twitter existed during their presidencies, attacking Republican lawmakers by name in the way that Trump has jabbed Sens. John McCain and Lindsay Graham.
We all know that midterm-election voters tend to be older, whiter, more conservative, and more Republican than those who go to the polls in presidential-election years. But we also know that angry, disaffected voters are most motivated to turn out for the midterms. There is no question that in November's presidential election, the passion and energy was behind Donald Trump, not Hillary Clinton. If you had to say where the energy and passion is right now, I would say it's with the Democrats. The party out of power tends to be more motivated than the one in charge, especially if complacency sets in.
Republicans might want to think about what happened to Democrats during the eight years of Barack Obama's presidency. He had a unique appeal that motivated his backers in 2008, but they mostly didn't show up in the 2010 midterm elections to vote for Joe or Jane Democrat, costing the party its House majority.
The Obama devotees turned out again in 2012 to elect him and other Democrats, but when the 2014 midterms came around, the remaining Joe and Jane Democrats again paid the price, this time losing the Senate majority. Obama had a unique appeal that did not convey in midterm elections to other Democrats. Will that also be true for Trump backers? Will they show up in the midterms to vote for a Republican lawmaker who may not look or sound much like their president—especially one who hasn't reliably supported him anyway? Maybe not.
The odds and demographic turnout patterns in midterms still favor Republicans holding onto their House majority. The paucity of GOP senators up for reelection in tough states in 2018 presents a very steep climb for Democrats, but this is not going to be a very easy two years for Republicans on Capitol Hill.

Faiz Subri definitely made the nation proud after winning the prestigious FIFA Puskas Award this week. Not only was he the first Malaysian to win this amazing award, he was the first ASIAN to do so too!
However, it seems like trolls just can't get enough of trying to put him down. Many netizens swarmed onto social media to downplay Faiz's win.
They questioned why he didn't wear the Baju Melayu, why didn't he speak in Malay during his acceptance speech, and one girl even accused Faiz of wearing a cross!
But the most unbelievable thing happened when a journalist from a local news portal slammed Faiz's 'broken English' during his speech.
The journalist said,
"Fifa Puskas award winner Faiz's embarrassing search for and halting delivery of the digital text of his acceptance speech in Zurich last night were sad commentaries on the state of English proficiency in the country."
"If they (Malaysians) watched the footage of his moment in the spotlight, whatever pride they must have felt over Faiz being chosen as winner would have been diminished by his shambling performance on being called to receive the prize and say a few words."
I think all Malaysians were proud of him, dude.
Then the journalist went on to explain that if Faiz had had better English, Malaysians wouldn't have felt so utterly embarrassed.
"Malaysians watching the Fifa awards ceremony would have been spared the squirming embarrassment of watching a shambling performance by the English-deprived Faiz."
Of course netizens were pissed off at his uncalled-for degradation. One very angry Joe Najib decided to write a retaliation which of course went viral as Malaysians echoed his sentiments.
He wrote,
"When an unknown writer by the name of Terence criticized Faiz Subri for his broken English when he delivered his speech, I felt somewhat obligated to write this."
"Some of Malaysia's greatest achievers on the global stage don't have a strong command of the language. Even our living legend Datuk Lee Chong Wei speaks neither English nor Bahasa Malaysia fluently. 'Cukup makan' we say."
"But you know what? No one criticised him. Why is that? Because he let his wins and achievements do the talking."
"Every drop of sweat that trickled down his chin on to the court is worth more than any English or BM word we know that he doesn't."
"The same with Faiz Subri. Half a year ago, nobody knew who this man was. He became an overnight sensation, propelled into the global spotlight with that physics-defying free-kick."
"And last night, he, like DLCW and many other home-grown sports personalities before him, made Malaysia proud, by bagging an award that is not only a first for Malaysia, but a first for all of Asia as well."
"And quite possibly, no one else from this part of the world will ever win it again. Quite possibly."
"So Terence, what has your flawless command of the English language brought you other than your monthly paycheck, to sit behind a keyboard and write toilet-paper-worthy articles such as this?"
"I won't even go to the extent of asking what have YOU done to make this country proud. Heck, I don't even think your own neighbours know your name lah."
"Tak malu ke."
What do you think? Did Malaysians really felt embarrassed by Faiz's broken English, or was the guy just making a big hoo-ha?

Theory: there are 2 monsters on the island. theory: one of said monsters is jacobs nemesis. the other monster is jacob.
In the episode "left behind", Kate and Juliet come up against what is seemingly the Smoke Monster. We are given a POV shot just like in the 1st season. Why wouldnt they show the monster in one scene but then show it in the next. what is especialy wierd is that the monster seems to be taking pictures of Juliet and Kate,or is just shining a bright light at the two. The only thing like this that we have seen so far and since is the monster judging both Eko and Ben. But still, why wouldnt they show us what Juliet and Kate were seeing? Perhaps the smoke monster is Jacobs Nemisis, since he was wearing black and can take other peoples forms. And i do recall Locke saying "i looked into the island and what i saw was beautifu" or something to that effect. Since Jacob is being seen as a contrast to his nemisis he would be a white monster, perhaps. and that is why we did not see what the characters were seeing. and in both pov shots i swear i could hear a stomping like noise, maybe the jacob monster has feet? maybe jacob is the foour toed statue(jusk kiding)

Zimbabwe's main public service union on Friday rejected government plans to cut 25,000 jobs and suspend annual bonuses, saying that would hurt workers already struggling to make ends meet.
"We believe these measures are ill-conceived and can only further entrench the doom and gloom that has become the lot of the average civil servant," said Cecelia Alexander, head of the Apex Council which called a two-day walkout by teachers, doctors and nurses over pay delays in July, part of the biggest strike in Zimbabwe in 10 years.
In a budget statement on Thursday, Chinamasa said state sector wages took up 97 percent of total revenues collected between January and June, a situation that could destabilise the economy.
It also meant the government risked being unable to pay salaries, Chinamasa said, proposing the suspension of annual bonuses for state employees in 2016 and 2017 to save $180 million annually.
Last year, Chinamasa made similar proposals but was forced to back down by President Robert Mugabe who told him to find the money elsewhere.
Under Chinamasa's plan, the civil service would shed 25,000 jobs, reducing the workforce to 273,000 by the end of 2017. Salaries for ministers and senior officials would be cut by up to 20 percent and Zimbabwe would close some embassies abroad.
Unable to get funds from international lenders, Zimbabwe is in its worst financial crisis since adopting the U.S. dollar in 2009. Economic difficulties have fueled political tensions, with anti-government protests over cash shortages and unemployment.
Chinamasa is leading Zimbabwe's re-engagement with lenders including the International Monetary Fund and World Bank which are demanding cuts in the wages bill and the clearance of $1.8 billion in debt arrears before they agree to new funding.


text: Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per ShareAdjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (calculated on a diluted basis) exclude actuarial gains and losses on pension and postretirement benefit obligations, restructuring and other similar costs, gains or losses on divestitures, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, the impact of inventory fair value adjustments in connection with purchase accounting, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses, net of their income tax impact. The tax rates used to calculate adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share is based on a transaction specific basis. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations. EBITDA EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is presented because it is an important supplemental measure of performance and it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. EBITDA is also presented and compared by analysts and investors in evaluating the performance of issuers of "high yield" securities because it is a common measure of the ability to meet debt service obligations. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Because EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges, including interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business.
