I'm sorry, but this made me chuckle!

Xander doesn't hate diaper changes, but he doesn't make it easy because he's constantly bicycling his legs! Plus he's like a cat with a new little box - as soon as you get a new diaper on him, he poops in it! So it's often a production and I go through a few diapers at a time. BUT he's not unhappy about the whole situation - I think he finds it fun.

Just wait until you add mobility to the mix and they are trying to get away from you!!!!

Have you tried adding a clean diaper under the dirty diaper? Then you can eliminate out the washcloth step and just use the diaper if you have to and you also don't have to worry about an accident on the changing table.

Yes, do what @matador84: suggests! Just slap that new diaper under the old one before you remove it. Then if they start pooping on you, it's already contained.

Yeah.... now that he can crawl he HATES changes It is a mess. I always kept a prefold under his bum so I could just whip it out if a mess happened in process instead of another diaper.

Sounds normal. I remember those times where you just got a new diaper on underneath him and he would fill it right there. A few weeks ago, LO did that to me in the morning. It was like he decided it was the perfect time to poop. That's at 11 months old too.

Mobility makes it a thousand times harder. I'm lucky if I can change him on the changing table. I put his clothes on the other day while he stood up and went through the lower shelves of the changing table.

@Pepper: Yeah I think it will eliminate out some steps. I wasn't really all that gentle with diaper changes...would have rather have a pissed off baby in 5 than drag it out forever!

@mrskc: Somedays, it feels like he stores up the poop for pivotal times in the morning or night. I walked into the nursery this morning to the smell of poop. I knew immediately that he did. We've had some weekend mornings where he poops 2-3 times in a row, then none until the next day.

Aww! My toddler is like this. She won't poop in a wet diaper, so she waits until we change her... and then she poops. And she doesn't like to be dirty, so if it's a big poop she'll go *some*, wait for us to change her, then go some more. It's such a production. I'm like, "JUST GO ON THE POTTY ALREADY!"

Can you put a clean diaper underneath him like someone else suggested? We used to do that when she was a newborn, and it helped a lot! Gosh, I remember the projectile poop, too! We totally had to run for carpet cleaner at midnight once!
