Especially if she poops while she's nursing and almost asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-774636 Fri, 10 May 2013 22:21:47 +0000 beachbee 774636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually go ahead and wake her to change it right away. LO hates a poopy diaper and will end up waking up crying because of it during the night, so I'd rather get it over with now while I'M still awake and then get her to go back to sleep! </p> <p>If I were in your situation in the car, I would do exactly the same and wait it out a little till you get to the next town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-774612 Fri, 10 May 2013 21:58:39 +0000 Mrs. Pen 774612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Call me a bad mom but I wouldn't wake a sleeping baby to change their diaper hahaha! Sleep is precious!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-774564 Fri, 10 May 2013 21:34:59 +0000 ladyfingers 774564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wait until he wakes up because it bothers him... ha. His sleep is too precious. That's why we slather on the diaper cream before bed, we need a thick barrier just in case. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-774444 Fri, 10 May 2013 20:33:17 +0000 googly-eyes 774444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: Glad you made it ok! I'm sure it didn't do too much damage. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-773902 Fri, 10 May 2013 15:14:12 +0000 Smurfette 773902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally wait!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-773326 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:46:20 +0000 shopaholic 773326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: bahaha. I followed your advice and we made it the last hour to our destination. It was a poopy one, but very small - not nearly as much as it sounded! Lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-772513 Fri, 10 May 2013 06:29:43 +0000 SleepyMonkey 772513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wait it out! i've gotten LO in the morning and she had a poopy diaper that was probably a couple hours old. she survived. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-772323 Thu, 09 May 2013 23:30:35 +0000 googly-eyes 772323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wait a few mins and sniff! If its a fart it shouldn't smell by then... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-2#post-772322 Thu, 09 May 2013 23:29:32 +0000 shopaholic 772322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you do when you finally got your LO to sleep and he/she makes a big pooping sound? Do you risk waking LO up to check? I always do at home, but sometimes involves un-swaddling and probably waking up. What about when you're in the car? </p> <p>This question might be coming from the fact that we just spent 10 minutes at a rest stop in the rain... Soothing a inconsolable baby on a road trip. Finally got her to sleep and strapped back in the car seat and BOOM! We hear a BiG poopy!<br /> * fwiw: we're going to try to make it to the next town for an indoor changing area. </p>
