dlsafrica Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 What is your favourite changing / diapering position? Personally, I just tried again to do it sitting down and it is too difficult. Nothing seems long enough, and by that I mean specifically the tapes. Standing up I also find a mission, just because of gravity. But now that I know how to properly diaper with relation to gathers, tapes and firmness of placement so everything is where is should be for a comfortable fit, it is lying down all the way for me. Besides, if anyone else were to ever diaper me, I would be lying down. Link to comment

Little Baby Becca Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Laying down most definitely. Wouldn't want it any other way... Link to comment
lekebaby Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Laying down with 2 pillows under my head, feet together, knees bent holding teddy bear. Teddy loves change time Link to comment
Three Rivers Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Standing up with my back against a wall or other solid item (dresser, bathroom vanity) I have used this method for years, easier to get centered and taped for me. When the wife diapers me it's always on the bed or living room floor.? Link to comment
Cute_Kitten Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I've never tried changing my diaper sitting down. I've laid down for diaper changes. I prefer standing- for some reason it lets me tape my diaper snugger than if I lay down, and I stand when I have to change in a public restroom. Link to comment
babypb Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 ...I do my cloth diapers standing. I also feel I can pull the diaper more snug to pin it when I do. Link to comment
diaperguy85 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 standing for me! but that's also from i haven't had much chance until recently to change laying down or sitting. but for standing, i feel i get a proper fit with the leg guards and tapes. i can see the other positions. i might have to give them another chance Link to comment
Baby_Richie Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I used to put my nappy on whilst standing up, often leaning against the door or the wardrobe, but these days I tend to change lying down. I just find is more comfortable and 'natural'. It's not the same as having someone else change me of course, but I prefer to at leat be in the right position! Link to comment
Little Sherri Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I pretty much always change my diaper lying down - I find that I get the snuggest fit that way. Link to comment
carsfan Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I use the wall technique unless I’m being changed by someone else, which is rare. I lay down for that. Link to comment
kikicakes Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I use to like changing myself while laying down, but then it became difficult to do it properly. So now I change standing up if I do it myself. Link to comment
willnotwill Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 More often than not I do the change standing up. I back against the wall to hold the rear of the diaper in place doing the tapes. Periodically, I'll be changine in a place with a suitable changing table, then I lie down. Link to comment
NannaAnnabelle Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Standing up using the back against the wall method. Generally I'm in pull-ups though so I don't do that often. Link to comment
Luvs24 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 At home I'm always changed lying down. If were out and I need to be changed I'm changed in a family restroom. If I'm only wet, she will change me standing up, but if I'm messy I'm changed lying down on a changing mat. Link to comment
BabyJune Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Since I wear cloth diapers, I have to be laying down to change because cloth diapers need to be pinned tightly at the waist. Link to comment
Davey Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Depends on how much time I have. I prefer laying down, with standing adjustments (one reason I love hook an loop diapers). But if I oversleep or da like, I do it standing against a wall. Link to comment
