Changing mats

[mrsmaggy]

What type do you use at home, is it a travel one or padded one? Do you line it with anything i.e. the blue paper towel thing you can buy?

I have 2 , a standard full size one in the utility and one that lives in the changing bag. I dont line them , just wipe over with an antibac wipe each change.

I use both, padded for home, and in the changing bag i take out i use the thinner ones you can fold up. as long as you clean them after every change either is ok.

This is what I do

Same here - I wipe it over with an antibac wipe after (and between) each nappy change, then at the end of the day I spray it with antibac spray and leave it to dry

Each child has their own travel changing mat and i wipe them over each time i use them .

I use a nappy mat sized rectangle of vinyl tablecloth. Different pattern for each child. It stays in their own box with their own nappies.

I have six in nappies throughout the week and they each have their own travel mat (wiped over with anti bac wipes) in their own drawstring bag with their nappies.

Gone are the days of changing a babies nappy on ones lap!!:

mine all have individual travel mats that get wiped down after each change and kept in the childs box with nappies.

Thanks everyone, I have lots of brand new travel mats which I am going to allocate one to each if I can find the space, I have been using one foam one but its now on its last legs and the cheapest i've found are £7-£8

i use a fold up one on top of a folding change table and use anti bac wipe after each use

I buy the travel ones from the Poundshop! Try to get different patterns for each child, but write their name on the back with a marker pen anyway!!
