We have all her diapers and stuff in the living room and we change her on the floor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-316536 Sat, 29 Sep 2012 02:36:09 +0000 sunny 316536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bring LO upstairs for every change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-316512 Sat, 29 Sep 2012 00:33:47 +0000 pinkcupcake 316512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her changing table is upstairs. If we have to change her downstairs, we'll just do it on the floor on a changing pad. We keep a bin of diapers, wipes, cream, etc downstairs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267952 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:43:35 +0000 Honeybee 267952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Initially, I just changed DS downstairs on a changing pad on the floor. I just used the diaper bag, since we keep it in the downstairs closet, and then I'd restock it every couple days. Our regular changing table with all of the extra supplies is upstairs, but I didn't want to have to drag both kids upstairs with me for every single change (which, with a newborn is like every 2 hours). Now that DS is older (5 months) and we change him less often, I don't use the diaper bag nearly as much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267951 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:43:10 +0000 Mrsbells 267951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we only have one floor, but my sister in law has 3 floors but only one changing table. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267948 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:40:06 +0000 SugarplumsMom 267948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have changing pads on top of dressers on both floors. For now, she sleeps in our room and the main changing pad is in there. A second, less expensive changing pad is in her nursery, but we'll switch them off when we move her into her crib. We also have 2 diaper trash bins. We don't use any fancy containers to hold the diapers and wipes, just baskets, so we didn't have to specifically buy anything else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267947 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:38:52 +0000 mrs. wagon 267947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a changing table in the nursery and a changing station on the pack n play in our room (where Lil Miss Wagon sleeps right now), both upstairs. Then downstairs we have a diaper changing caddy and we put the changing pad on the couch or ottoman or ground. When we move Lil Miss Wagon to the nursery, we'll put the pack n play downstairs and use the changing station there (and use the pack n play as a playpen). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267884 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:56:15 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 267884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as PPs ... we used a PNP with a changer downstairs and his normal changing station upstairs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267872 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:43:56 +0000 Goldilocks1107 267872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO sleeps upstairs, and I have a basket on the main level that I keep some diapers, a box of wipes, Desitin, extra bib, extra onesie and a travel changing pad in (I had a travel changing pad and my diaper bag also came with one, so I use the diaper bag one at the house). When it's time to change a diaper, I just pull out the basket, unfold the changing pad on the floor and VIOLA! instant changing area. When I'm done, I fold it up and put it back on the shelf. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267842 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:23:38 +0000 Andrea 267842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a changing table on both our floors. It does make it so much easier. I keep most of her clothes up in the nursery but I have some downstairs, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267839 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:23:02 +0000 pastemoo 267839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only have one floor but when he would scream at night during changes we would change him in a different room... we just used a portable changing pad on the floor.<br /> Most of my mom friends don't even use their changing table at all anymore! They just use a cloth diaper (I used a vinyl placemat) and change the baby on top of that on the floor or couch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267838 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:22:30 +0000 sorrycharlie 267838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a two-floor, and have her changing table upstairs and a pack and play with a changer in the living room downstairs (the Safety 1st one). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267837 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:22:27 +0000 mediagirl 267837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a pack n play on our main living area floor and her changing table in her room upstairs. If we had another floor, we would probably just change her on the floor on a blanket. </p> <p>When we visit my parents, my mom puts plastic down on the bed, covers it with a flannel sheet and we change her there. She has also napped there. </p> <p>Use whatever works for you. I LOVE our pnp changing station. It has a place for dipes on the side and we change her on the changing table that came with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changing-tables-on-2-floors#post-267835 Thu, 23 Aug 2012 14:20:25 +0000 ShootingStar 267835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For people that have 2 or more floors, do you have more than one changing table? If so, what do you use outside the nursery - a pack n play? a regular changing table? a changing pad on the couch? Do you have a duplicate of everything in the nursery (changes of clothes, hamper, diaper cream/hand sanitizer/etc), or a pared down version? </p> <p>We have a 4 floor townhouse with living room/kitchen on floor 2, and bedrooms on floor 3. I'm assuming we won't want to take baby up and down the stairs for every changing, but I'm curious how people handle this. </p>
