DS is 12 months. I still use the changing table - but it was $15 on craigslist and though we added reinforcements to make it safer, it's falling apart and I'm just sick of it lol. I could just as easily change him on the floor. I want to get rid of it and get him an activity table instead.
When did you put away the changing table?

My due date group just had this conversation! Lots of them said they're doing changes on the floor and have been for a while. I've got a pad on his dresser so we'll keep changing up there until we can't anymore. The diaps are all in the top drawer so it's easy to grab them and change.

I have a changing pad on the dresser in our bedroom but have never used it. I do changes on a blanket on the floor. I've been so disorganized as of lately so I grab a diaper pocket an insert then change DD on the floor or couch.

I've been changing her on the floor/bed since 9 months. She's too squirmy!

About 10 months, maybe 9. Too much rolling over and trying to dive off the dresser top. Floor only since then.

I still use our changing pad on the dresser at 20 months! It helps reinforce "diaper time, not run away from mom time" ... if I let him hold one of his trucks or something, he's usually fine. (Usually...)

Thinking about it now, at almost 7 months. She is squirmy and does the dirty diaper tap dance all the time.

At 8 months we are still using the changing pad on top of the dresser. Hoping to keep that going for as long as possible.

We just have a changing pad on his dresser. We still use it at 10 months old. Ill probably take it down when he's about 15 months when #2 arrives because I don't plan on buying another one. We'll take it down sooner if we stop using it though

19 months and we still use it. I don't like changing her on the floor because it's easier for her to just crawl away.

@Mrs. Yoyo: same! He is less squirmy when he's on the changing table with a toy or book. He knows its changing time. But on the floor he wants all the toys he can see.

We haven't used ours since DS was 9 or 10 months old. It's still up in our guest room. I'm thinking of putting it in my closet and using it for shoes and purses.

We stopped using it when LO became really mobile. He just didn't want to set still and I felt safer changing him on our bed or the floor.
