Silverstone says that she actually enjoyed the process and didn't find the transition particularly difficult.
She also shared that "there was a period of time where I was watching him naked and watching the cues. The cues part for me was really fun because I thought that he was flirting with me because he would do this little smile. That's when he had to pee."
According to Us Weekly, Silverstone's ex-husband deemed her process "hippy s***" at the time, but eventually appreciated that it worked.
The Excess Baggage actress has always been candid about how she parents.
When her son was 10 months old, Silverstone shared a video feeding her little boy food she had chewed up.
"I fed Bear the mochi and a tiny bit of veggies from the soup … from my mouth to his. It's his favorite … and mine," she shared on her website.
And of her decision to raise her son on a vegan diet, she told Us Weekly in 2020, "I always laugh, like, 'Oh, my poor vegan baby, he's so weak,' because he's jumping all over the place and he's so wild," she said in jest before adding, " ... there's a calmness to him and a centredness. He's not off the charts."
