Night-time nappy changes!
Hi ladies,
My friend has a 3 week old and they are struggling getting her back to sleep after changing her nappy during the night. I just wondered if any of you had experienced this and if you had any tips that I could pass on to her (and also save for myself!)? Or is it just a case of resettling the baby etc?
Many thanks in advance!

We had the same problem when our lo was a newborn, now we don't change his nappy unless he's pooed, then change it first thing in the morning. The nappies are normally designed to keep baby dry for 12 hours (i think)
alex is 2 weeks and 2 days and we found that he won't settle with a dirty nappy, what we do is feed him til he's sleepy then change him and give him the 2nd half of his feed x
I'm breastfeeding and this makes him take a bigger feed and helps jim to go longer between feeds x don't know if it'll work for everyone but it's working for us so far x x
Kelly and Alex 16 days x
