From one parent to another
“‘When changing a nappy, slide a clean one under the dirty one so that if your baby decides to have a wee mid-change, you can catch it easily. Also, always have 2 lots of Metanium handy – one for your changing table at home and one for the changing bag!’’
From one parent to another
“Have a colourful mobile hanging above the changing area at home. It keeps them happy and distracts them from rolling around!’’
From one parent to another
“Always make sure you have everything to hand before changing the nappy, like nappy sacks, cream, nappies and wipes. Have everything open and ready to use. It’s much easier than trying to hold your baby with one hand and reaching for a clean nappy with the other!”
