Nappy before or after feed?

I always do nappy then bottle. He sometimes screams as he wants his bottle so I just try and calm him down and change his nappy quickly. Soon after as he’s got his bottle he’s settled. It could just be the same for your little one where she’s just hungrier now as soon as she wakes up.

I also do before bottle, if I wait till after it then wakes him up and that’s a full different nightmare because he then won’t sleep and he gets himself overtired and yeah doesn’t work for us 🤣 I try to time things so I can get the nappy changed and everything prepared just before he has time to scream the place down, if course it doesn’t always go to plan though 🤣 x

I just think you should do whatever’s best for yourself and baby. I personally try to do it before but when my little girl wakes up screaming early hours it’s just easier for myself and her to do it after she’s had some milk and then continue with the bottle once the happy has been done that way no screams and more of the time she’ll still happily go back to sleep after a cuddle etc x

I was doing bum before milk but I’m now doing a little bit of milk to settle him overnight when he is doing longer stretches of sleep and then bum as he really screams else

My baby most time poo after having a feed,so not sure if I should do a feed before nappy change or between feeds

that’s a great idea; I’ll try that! Thank you.

I also do nappy before change, mainly cus my little one Hates being naked lol

I changed it so we do nappy then feed cos she falls asleep after a feed and changing her wakes her up cos she hates being naked lol so she wasn't sleeping as well. I've found since changing her then feeding her she seems a lot happier with it 😊

Always first.
Other wise she will be all settled and your wake her up changing her nappy xx

I do nappy then bottle too. My LO doesn’t like having his nappy changed, so if we errr to do the nappy last, he would wake himself back up in distress and not settle for a nap or an activity.

I do nappy while the bottle is being prepped

Our son wakes us so hangry for his bottle and screams the place down so we’ve took to giving some bottle then nappy change then continue with bottle which works well for us

My LO wants food like yesterday when he is hungry 😂 so I do bit of milk then stop when I would wind him anyway, quick nappy change (he still cries but not as bad) then back onto the milk and he forgets all about why he was crying 😂

Mine seems never happy regardless of which way round lol sometimes have to do before and after tales a while to settle but I found playing vacuum noises on laptop help her x

It depends, sometimes my little girl doesn’t give me any notice that she’s hungry she’ll just wake up screaming so I’ll feed her half her bottle, burp her so she’s somewhat settled then change her nappy and give the rest of her feed so then she’s settled enough for a cuddle then sleep :) x

that’s usually what I do too x

My baby screams through 95% of nappy changes whether she's hungry or not! 😅 I don't always do nappy first in the day time, depends if she's just been sleeping/ I've heard her poo... sometimes at night if she's already awake ready to feed I will do one boob, then change, then the second boob 👍😊

During the day I feed and then change nappy to keep baby more awake during the day time, but on a night I nappy change then feed as to make him settled xx

that’s a good idea. I may try that. My girls wake windows are usually quite long in the day as it is ahahah

I've found at night, feed and half way through change the nappy then return so they get all sleepy and during the day at the end of a feed, unless of course the nappy needs to be changed urgently 😊

Nappy first before feed, I find putting a muslin or towel underneath her on the xhange mat stops the crying. She doesn't like the cold touching her bum and legs

They kept making us do change first (we were in nicu for 11 days so had some time to get stuff figured out for home) but then he’d always poo halfway through which they weren’t expecting as he was a formula baby not a breast baby so he’d have a change after and would completely defeat the point of changing before so unless he was refusing bottle which he would occasionally, we told them we weren’t gonna be changing him before because we’re not millionaires and can’t be doing that many bum changes but it all depends on you and baby
