The open end should be the bottom of your changing pad. Then again with the short side that has been sewn closed.įold the changing pad to figure out where you would like it to close. Trim the edge material so it is the length of your long side and top stich it on.įlip it over and fold the edge to the other side of the changing pad.ĭo the same thing with the other long side. Lay the strip front sides together on your changing pad. Then fold the side in to meet in the middle and iron again. I cut 2 long strips about 6 1/2 “ x 60” I had extra so if you want to make the length a little shorter than works to.įold the strip in half and iron to form a crease. Top stich them all together on 3 sides leaving one of the small ends completely open. Place them on top of each other, the back on the bottom the absorbent material in the middle and the towel on top. But you could also use a cloth diaper, or several layers of flannel. It says it will hold up to 4 times its own weight in wetness. * I got my absorbent material at Big Lots in the baby section. Mine ended up being 22” X 16 3/4”Ĭut your absorbent material and your towel the same size as the back fabric.
Never change baby in public.īaby #5 “Would someone please put a diaper on that kid!” JKĬut your fabric for the back of the changing pad to your desired size. At home use clean diaper as a changing padīaby #4 Mostly rely on your amazing diaper changing speed. I gave up on the stupid non-absorbent changing pad.Įvolution of changing Pads from a Mother of 5īaby #3 Use changing pad in public restrooms only. After this happened a few more times, Yes she had an incredible talent for “weeing” while her diaper was off. She was soaked with “wee'” from head to foot. Yeah!! Boy was I WRONG!!! Not only had the pee I mean “wee” rolled off the plastic changing pad and gotten my bed soaked but it had also soaked my poor little baby. I think I’m so glad I used the changing pad, now my bed won’t be wet. I got her diaper off and was reaching for a new one when I noticed she is “weeing” everywhere. I placed the changing pad over the bed spread and gently laid my little baby or top of it and proceeded to change her diaper.
Then I gave birth and brought my little darling girl home.
I remember getting my first changing pad with baby #1 (I think it came with the diaper bag they give you in the hospital) and thinking how great it was because it had plastic on it so it could be easily cleaned and the “wee” or “woo” wouldn’t soak through and get on things. Note: A person experience about changing pads. And a tutorial if you want to make one too. Here is the changing pad I made for my sister.
