Changing pad covers question

[skiesthelimit]

I change mine when DS gets poop or food on it, which lately is OFTEN. He's doing this thing now that as soon as I take his diaper off he rolls over and tries to crawl away. Not good when there's poop involved...

1x per week unless there is obvious evidence of poo or food.

I only have one cover but maybe 6 waterproof small blanket like things that I rotate through. I probably change the blanket thing every couple days, but the cover every couple weeks.

Every week

I lay these flat covers over it, and they get changed every week or even more often if they get spitup or poop or pee on them.

This. I can't remember the last time something got on it so I just pull it off when I'm doing the weekend laundry.

His changing pad cover on his changing table upstairs gets washed maybe once a month. He rarely gets changed up there and he's generally not messy. Downstairs, where 98% of his diaper changes occur, we don't have a cover. It's a waterproof pad that I wipe down with a clorox wipe every other day or so.

I just packed up and put away his changing pad and covers. With all the moving I find it easier to change him either on the floor or in his crib. I did change it every couple of weeks unless there was a poop incident or something.

How often do you change yours? I used to change them once every few weeks because it really wasn't necessary before then, but now I'm finding I have to change them every couple days...between the crumbs from meals and his general stinkiness haha. I'm glad I have 4, otherwise it would be a lot if washing.

I used to be once in a while or if he peed on it. Now it's often, like you, bc of crumbs and just a messier kid.

Like once a month? I always have a burp cloth type thing over it that his butt lays on, so it never gets dirty.

Crap, I just started a load of towels and was going to toss the one on the table in. Oh well. I change it when it gets messed up, or once a week. Which ever comes first.

at 10 months old my child has never sat his butt on his changing pad, but I did change it once because i was sick of looking at the cover.

I do the same thing.
