time to train???

I have been reading my book by the baby whisperer lady: "The Baby Whisperer solves all your problems". It's actually a pretty good book, dealing with sleeping issues, eating issues etc. She suggests starting toilet training at 9 months. How insane does that sound?? lol. Her reasoning is that most people wait too long and their children are already very comfortable doing it in their diapers and don't want the change, and on top of that they're already in teh terrible 2's/3's. So she suggests trying it now, and if they go, make a huge fuss and it will grow to be a familiar thing for them, so once they are capable of holding it etc. they'll know what they should do. She said babies usually go pee 15-20 minutes after having a drink, and to watch for their facial expressions/cues for #2. Most babies will go at the same time every day. So. I thought, hey maybe I'd try this and see what happens... crazy book lady... I was feeding Ian breakfast and saw him make his "I gotta go" face... so I quickly hurried up and took him to the toilet(and she said don't bother with the potty, just get the seat that fits directly onto the toilet and a stool, it's one less transition they'll have to make), striped him down and plopped him on the seat. He thought I was nuts, as did I... so I start singing him a song as he is yanking on the toilet paper... and he went!! I praised too late though, I didn't realize he'd done it!! lol. Anyway, I just thought that was the funniest thing, sounds incredibly crazy, and I'm not sure I'll totally follow it, but hey, if it helps get rid of the diapers sooner I'm all for it!!
