Posted: Tue, Sep 28 2004, 8:44 pm Post subject: changing boys diaper

I dont know if this is in the right forumn, but here goes:

whenever I change my babies diper from a number two he screams( doesnt have diaper rash) even more so he tightens his legs when I clean around his aiver( dont scream- what other word could I use) . I have to open to clean around, but he screams..........he cant be THAT sensitive in that area....what could it be?

Your guess is as good as mine... Zu does the exact same thing! My husband doesn't even know why he would.

I know with Levi it makes a difference if he is holding a toy and is distracted. I think for my son he just doesn't want to sit down and wants to play.

I found that if I look into the eyes of the child I am changing they don't fuss as much.
I look at them (not just their tush) and talk to them, making baby sounds with babies and conversation with older kids.

Have you tried warm wipes? Smile

I only have girls but I know they cooperate(d) better when the wipes weren't cold (and room temperature down there is cold!).

Distraction is also a great idea Smile
