Help Please!!! With Changing Diapers
Posted: 12-14-06 16:00pm

Okay I have had it!!!
For the past month (or maybe longer)
everytime I try to change traces diaper he
tries to get away.
And, everytime he has a poopy diaper, he
squirms and wiggles and turns onto his
stomach, no matter what I do he will not
stay! He gets caca everywhere! On the
changing table, on his stomach, his
clothes, down his legs, on his socks, on
my hands, down my arms!!!! I cannot
handle this anymore! Its nasty, and I
dont even want to take him anywhere
because I am terrified he will poop!!
Someone please help me!!!!!!!!

Have you tried a changing pad with a belt?
He'd still be able to squirm but he'd be
kind of restrained. I can't imagine he
could make to much of a mess if it's snug
enough on his waist.

Haha I had the same problem
get a loonnng belt from like, the mens
dept at walmart.. And use it like the
changing stations in public restrooms..
Take it under the changing table and then
up around .Trace. It wont completely stop
him but he wont be able to move enuf to
get crap everywhere.

Oh lord .Logan does the exact same thing.
It is annoying as hell 
it really tests my patience espcially when
poo starts going everywhere. I just grin
and bare it cause we don't have those
strap changing mats (as far as I know)

Brayden does this too, he gets really mad
at me. I always give him something he
knows he's not supposed to play with, like
my purse and that usually makes him stop
real quick. He likes getting in my wallet
and taking all the money out (not change)
hahahaha.
Brayden knows when he has new things too,
so I usually buy a bag of small toys and
give him one when nothing else will help,
he'll stop for a new toy anyday. And it's
not expensive bag of toys or anything,
just cheap nick nacks (that he cant choke
on)

Lol. I need to try that .D! Layla's fave
thing at the moment is somehow getting
hold of my make-up and drawing on herself
with it. She goes in my handbag all the
time and takes it out. I put it on top of
the wardrobe now so she's pi$$ed off!

Lmao, I think everyone has this problem!!
Oni's been doin it since she was 5, almost
6 months.
I have a changing pad with a strap. She
still twist and gets on her belly....But
while i'm wiping, I grab her feet and lift
em up. Try it, he won't be *able* to go
anywhere.
It's funny, she gets soo frustrated cuz
she *wants* something and can't get it cuz
I got her feet.
It's like gator wrestling!

My duaghter has been doing the exact same
thing since she was about 6 months old, no
matter what I give her to look at, she's
over it within seconds, and is a vertual
houdini when it comes to wriggling around
under the stupid strap thing on the
changing table.
When I hold her feet, she just raises her
bum up off the table, and twists- i'll
still be holding her ankles, but i'll be
getting the rear view.
I once heard a tip where you hold a
balloon in your mouth and blow it up and
then let it down and stuff to keep the
babies attension- I did try it, but found
I needed a hand to hold the balloon while
I inflated t, and maeve just wanted to
grab a hold of it and play with it
herself- which I did let her do, figuring,
hey, whatever keeps you still- but she
realised within 5 seconds she couldn't
blow it up, and was extra annoyed.
Maybe baloon in conjunction with belt, and
some speedy wiping!!!
Plus- get used to it, maeve is now almost
13 months, and still fighting every
change.

This thread has really made me laugh
because my son is just the
same and it can be soooo frustrating!
His favourite habit is lifting his arse
off the mat and doing loads of 'pelvic
thrusts' while reaching round to grab the
nappy i've just undone. He also likes to
thrust his hands down to his butt and play
with the sh*t, then looks at his hands
like '"wow! How did that happen?!"
aaaaaaaaghhhhhhh!!!!

That is a normal stage. Distraction is
key. Put pictures around the changing
table and try to get him to focus on them
or hand him a toy. Anything to keep him
still. Flying crap is not fun!Lol hope
it gets better soon! :d

Give him a toy to play with, on another
not I always put a diaper underneath the
one he wearing, rip off the other one and
just tape the other one on. Wait till he
starts pulling off his diaper and crap
flies eveywhere!
