What order do you ....

do things in when it comes to feeding and changing?

We always change first and then feed as lo would just be sick if we tried to change him afterwards but he often gets VERY stressed during his change as he is soooooo hungry!!!!

Just wondered what others did! image

    I can go by the clock with Paige's feeds so I have always changed her nappy a few minutes before i know she's going to feel hungry, the odd time she cant wait for her feed (which is very rare) i change her afterwards

    I used to change Spencer pre-feed cos he always fell asleep on the breast so I used to let him nap.
    Even now, if I make Spencer wait more than two mins for his food, the world ends!! LOL

    I am the odd one out her!! I change my wee man mid feed- and evendid that with my other two. When Reuben wants a bottle he wants it NOW so I give him about three ozs get wind up and then he tries to fall back asleep so I fund changing his nappy wakes him up then he will finish his feed much better (usually another 2 ozs)

    I usually change Kara afterwards but if I find she is not taking her bottle too well I feed her mid feed and then she usually takes a bit more then depending on how hungry she is.

    We change Zara before every feed except her 6.30pm one coz she always fills her nappy about 5 minutes after it.

    i used to change then feed when lo was first born as he was so small i had to wake him for feeds, so changing him woke him up and so made feeding easier, but now theres no way he will wait for his food, but he doesn't like to eat when he's got a dirty nappy so he stops half way through, he just stops drinking until i change his nappy then he will happily have the rest!!
