Diaper Changing Challenge

Annabelle has started trying to roll over EVERY TIME that she's put on the changing table! This makes changing her very difficult, especially since she doesn't give up the entire time that she's being changed. We've tried distracting her with toys, but she just ends up trying to reach for other toys that require turning over to reach! Ugh!

I hope this is just a short phase she's going through!

Maybe try having something that hangs over her as you change that she has to reach up for, not behind or to the side. Also remove as many things from around her as possible to keep from distracting her? I had these little jars with cotton balls and q-tips. Leah always reached for the lids. I gave them to her because she could chew on them and she thought she had won the game of "Reach for the Jar."

I have had that trouble on and off with Zach since he was Belle's age. I have a special diaper toy that keeps getting changed as he has gotten older. I usually find a toy that plays music or sings. That seems to hold his attention longer and he can only have it when I change his diaper.

If I can find just the right toy I can keep him still...usually!
