Changing Table Plan

Aug 02, 2008 5 Replies

Anyone have a pointer for a corner baby changing table? This plan would allow a fit in a room corner and allow the baby to lay its legs toward room center to more easily change a diaper.



I've found several plans that are above a chest of some sort but this requires the baby to lay sideways to the diaper changer.



Thanks,



Otoe

I've always found that the baby laying with his/her head to my left and legs to my right allowed for easiest changing. An aiming device for male infants is handy too.

YMMV. As a grandpa, I have only occasional use for the techniques learned first about 36 years ago ...

My guess is you haven't changed too many diapers... because "sideways to the diaper changer" is exactly the way it should be.

Exactly. My wife once tried changing my youngest with his bottom facing her. He "let go" and pooped all down her front.

Lesson: never stand downrange of a naked baby's butt.

I guess I've been lucky with my two. We just used the bed with a rubberized pad/sheet. I'm more afraid of the baby rolling off a sideways table.

The floor's been good enough for us once the little tyke outgrew the sofa.
