Hi! I am waiting for my first born, so everything is very new. What are your thoughts on squishy changing mats? Thinking of buying Shnuggle, but don’t want to waist money.

Oooh here for the thoughts on this as it’s what we’d like to get too.

Other people may have different views but I honestly wouldn’t bother spending a fortune on a changing mat as eventually you end up sacking it off because it’s easier to just put them on the sofa or the bed etc. especially as they get bigger. Other people might say the completely opposite though

I wouldn't spend a fortune on a change mat but we still use one now, when we change our 3 year old in the morning (he wears pull ups to bed but potty trained during the day)

If you do choose to purchase it - you can get 10% off direct using WELCOME10 😊.
Second hand on Facebook is also an option too - just needs sterilising and cleaning 😊.
My friend said she wishes she’d got the shnuggle one because of elevation and colic as well as the mat not being as cold as the one she has, which is making me lean more towards it 🫣.

agreed! What a stupid price for a changing mat

I really enjoyed mine. I’ve got a little boy so it was great for suprise wees running to the bottom and I didn’t feel bad about putting him on it straight after a feed bc of the slope too. V easy to clean. Stopped using it around 9/10 months

This is the best changing mat I brought. Expensive yes, however everything for children is overpriced. In this case you get what you pay for. I got it after throwing away two other changing mats, I could have just brought this and saved some money.
I’ve been using it for almost 4 years with my first currently my second. Theres nothing wrong with it still good as new so for this baby too, I always put an old white pillowcase on top so it’s not cool on their skin and if its gets any poop on it I can soak it in napisan and the stain comes right out.
And surprise pees when the nappy comes off run to the bottom because of the slope so their top half stays dry 🙏🏾.
