Now, before you start, make fun of it. Take this opportunity to play "hide and find" game with your baby. Ask him "Where is this? Where is that now? Wou!...Look at this, I found it! Did you hide it from me?, etc. etc. This will capture the newborn baby's attention and it will facilitate the changing diaper process very simply. In addition, you are practically communicating perfectly to him increasing his understanding of simple language use. OK, let us roll your sleeves and get back to our concern activity... - In case you forgot something, give your closest friend a phone call and ask him/her a detailed list of what you may have at hand.
- Listen closely to those recommendations and pay attention to what it follow next...
- Gently lay down your newborn baby on his back on the changing table, bed or sofa.
- Beware! First most important safety tip...Never leave it alone by himself or it will roll out and fall on hard surface!
- Think on getting handy safety straps in case is the first time you are going to do it.
- If it were already with diaper, unfasten the diaper tabs and turn them loose.
- Raise your newborn's bottom off the diaper by gently grasping his ankles and lifting.
- If there is a recognized smell everyone understand, could it be just urine or poo; you may want to use the upper half of the diaper to gently sweep it towards the lower half of the diaper and carefully remove it.
- Except for this time, don't do this every time or your baby soft skin will surely very soon will evolve with baby skin rash!
- Now, if you are changing a girl, make sure you always wipe from front to back to help prevent infections.
- Slide the diaper away from the baby and place it nearby, but out of reach of the baby.
- If your baby is a newborn, you will want to cleanse the area thoroughly with either cotton balls and warm water or with a wet baby washcloth.
- If the newborn baby is about two months old, I recommend you not to use wipes containing alcohol because can cause skin rashes and irritations to baby skin.
- Once you finish the cleansing, place any used disposable diaper and cleaning supplies inside of the disposables container.
- Slide a clean diaper under your baby's bottom making sure tabs are on the portion located under your child's bottom.
- Before closing the diaper, apply any ointments or creams your doctor has recommended for rashes.
- Close the new diaper by pulling the front up over his belly and pulling the tabs open and around to the fastening surface.
- If you are not using specially cut newborn diapers, be sure to fold the diaper down to avoid irritation of the umbilical stump.
- Dispose of old diaper by wrapping tabs all the way around and securing inside a bag if desired.
- To avoid re-contamination, wash changing surface and your hands.
- This step is especially important if your baby is ill.
