this is the worst!! haha 18 months and still trying furiously to get out of nappy changes!

Lol it can be challenging indeed. I offered toys they only got to use with nappy change, to keep the interest high.

My son has been doing this since aboout 10 months its so hard he screams and acts like its the end of the world the only way i can is to distract him with something.

I’m having this problem now! I have an ottoman in the loungeroom, tv on and let her hold the remote

I had this problem also. It got so bad that my parents ended up buying a cheap but good change table with straps to clip her in and hold her down

Ha ha the eternal struggle of nappy changes!!

For mine key bunches work

I think this was why pull up nappy pants were invented!

It is certainly challenging isn’t it? Just a phase I’m afraid.

I am not sure there is a way, but it taught me to pick up my pace and change them really fast.

I think most babies do it you just find a way eventually

I’m pretty sure that it’s just a phase that all kids go through

I have an eight month old that has just started doing the same thing it is has made it a challenge! Some great tips here!

I would change in the floor on a light sheet (easy to wash) or a disposable change nappy with poo is present. It’s just a phase she will stop soon enough. Thi is the phase where I decided to lose te fake nails I ended up with poo under them

You could try changing her on the floor, at least down there its safer than her standing up on the change table. Otherwise change to pull up nappy pants, I found them a lifesaver, especially with my son who was walking at 9 months and didn’t want to be laid down!

Distraction is the key for me now! Today when I was changing my 14 months old I found the only thing that kept her still was handing her something to keep her occupied…

i change on the floor and hand her a special toy which is meant for nappy changes

Once my little one got more squirmy I found it much easier (and safer) to change her on the floor. She still has her moments where she is a total wiggle worm and will escape in the middle of a change though. I have found that firmly placing one hand on her tummy helps and each time that she moves re-positioning her so that she is on her back right where she should be.

Try pull-ups. Or put hand on chest and change with the other, that’s what I did before switching to pull ups.

That’s a funny time. It’s a struggle but they get past it
