It used to be awful but now she's very cooperative, I think because she's ready to potty train. She hates having wet or dirty diapers now.<br /> DD2 is still too little for it to be hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2128427 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 15:14:54 +0000 autumnlove 2128427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>it just depends! Some changes are impossible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2128412 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 15:05:34 +0000 BlueWolverine 2128412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do the stand up diaper change. She's much more amenable to that than lying down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2128287 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:05:00 +0000 ellewoods84 2128287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Its a definite struggle to changer her diaper now. I actually hate changing it. When I first lay her down, she cries like I have just laid her on a bed of hot coals and I am clearly attempting to kill her. Then the entire time, she is trying to roll over, sit up, stand up, grab the curtain, grab my hands, grab herself, etc. I really dislike it, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127960 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 10:56:26 +0000 danda 2127960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is 21 months and it is often awful but I think the number of good days is improving. We cloth diaper and the diapers have snaps, so I can pretty easily change her if she is standing up. Frequently I can get her interested in looking for birds out the window or something like that and it's enough to distract her while I change it. (Other times she's yelling no mommy no! as I struggle to get it on and she struggles to rip it off...so it's certainly a toss-up). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127744 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:57:38 +0000 FaithFertility 2127744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't imagine every day it gets harder and harder....lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127736 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:53:23 +0000 littleblessings 2127736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At age 2 DD just comes up and lays down. I do my thing and away she goes.<br /> DS however is 14 months, ridiculously strong and has the alligator roll down pat. I have to either act fast or sit on the floor with him and drape my leg over his chest/belly. He holds still when I do it. That's about as much as I have figured out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127712 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:34:27 +0000 avivoca 2127712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on her mood. If she would rather be doing something else, I have to hold her down with one arm and attempt to change her with the other. It's like cage fighting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127706 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:28:34 +0000 lovehoneybee 2127706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E is mostly potty-trained during the day, but putting a diaper on at night is ridiculous. I used to have to try to pin him down to put it on, and would get aggravated easily, so now I just leave the room and tell him I'll be back when he's ready. He usually calls me back in asking to put a diaper on within seconds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127700 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:23:10 +0000 snowjewelz 2127700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is just gonna be 4 mo and getting harder already b/c she keeps kicking her legs everywhere! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127681 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 08:03:08 +0000 sweetooth 2127681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It often requires two of us in the morning to get the job done. One to distract with a song, and one to tend to the business of changing his diaper. I fear what it will be like when he no longer fits on the changing table and we have to resort to the floor. Seems like he will just take off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127665 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 07:41:47 +0000 Little Misters Mom 2127665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He was great until about 8 months. Now he screams and thrashes and rolls away as if we're about to dip him in hot lava. Of course at daycare he's perfectly cooperative. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127623 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 06:48:32 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2127623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're casually potty training right now, and I swear it's worse than ever :sad: She's so determined to do everything by herself ... it's not very efficient, to put it lightly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127617 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 06:36:53 +0000 blackbird 2127617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She just lays there, totally still, like she enjoys it. It's really weird. She's an exhibitionist, at the very least </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127558 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 01:50:01 +0000 FunnyBunny87 2127558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Found on Instagram :) True, isn't it? </p> [attach=5245/15/nm2dnd.600x286.695pIF0.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127522 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 22:57:22 +0000 Punky 2127522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She flips herself over, tries to fling herself off the changing table, and grabs anything in sight. I've gotten good at putting her diaper on standing up because she'll at least stand and kind of hang onto me long enough to get it on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127518 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 22:50:25 +0000 PinkElephant 2127518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mae: handcuff an octopus. Love it! I've never heard that one before but it describes the situation perfectly.</p> <p>@BabyTsMom: I don't know when it stops because I dont remember my first being this feisty! It did stop eventually - maybe after she became a confident walker and didn't have to prove she could get away. For now my strategy is to give LO2 a few (clean) wipes to play with/chomp on (she loves sucking on wipes - gross), have more wipes ready for me, and to try to hold all four limbs in one hand. And to get her big sis out of the immediate area so LO2 isn't chasing after her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127495 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 22:08:26 +0000 travellingbee 2127495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh it's gotten worse over time! He's 2 and I want to potty train him just because I can't stand changing his diaper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127489 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 21:52:47 +0000 jhd 2127489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Always trying to sit up. I try to distract him with toys, songs, funny faces, or telling him to clap his hands. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127471 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 21:32:13 +0000 BabyTsMom 2127471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this post comes at the perfect time, because a few minutes ago I was telling my husband that I really hope some other moms have some tricks up their sleeves. My LO is freakishly strong as well. I've sometimes resorted to putting on his diaper while he stands, but I can never get it to fit nicely!!<br /> If no one has tricks, can someone tell me when it DOES get better?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127464 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 21:26:18 +0000 MamaChin 2127464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is an angel when it comes to diaper changes. He would come from across the room and lay down in front of me when I told him it's time for a change. My daughter, on the other hand, is freakin impossible. Twists, turns, kicks one leg out as soon as the other leg is on, pulling off the clean diaper the minute I get it on, grabs for the poopy diaper, you name it she does it. She can go from laying down to standing on the dresser in two seconds. She's only 1, I can't imagine what she'll do when she gets older and more inventive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127401 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 20:27:14 +0000 Tanjowen 2127401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's so hard! He's 15 months and tries to roll away, or he kicks his legs and I have to try to get him to stop long enough to attach the diaper together. I tell him every time he cries that if would just learn to use the toilet we wouldn't be in this situation :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127399 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 20:25:03 +0000 Mae 2127399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: YES. I always say its like trying to handcuff an octopus. Suddenly she has twice the limbs and they are all flailing and grabbing onto anything she can get and rolling, trying to sit/stand up.... etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127397 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 20:23:37 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2127397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is 16 months and almost impossible to change most of the time!! He kicks, cries, tries to escape. Sometimes he works himself up so much that he's crying real tears. It's kind of traumatic and super annoying in the morning when we need to move quickly!! Toys used to work as a distraction but now he launches them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127388 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 20:20:07 +0000 PinkElephant 2127388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's a near impossibility to change my 10 month old. She's quick, strong, and a complete ninja. She's got faking left, rolling right, crawling away to pull up on something, then peeing on the floor down to a science. I'd be mortified if I ever had to change her in public in the view of a stranger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-a-challenge-to-change-your-los-diaper#post-2127380 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 20:17:08 +0000 Bao 2127380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Half of the time my one year old is trying to roll away when I am changing her, it becomes such a task! I tell her if she would just sit still I would be able to change her quicker ;) </p> <p>Does your LO fight diaper changes or do they lay there nice when you are changing them? </p>
