Changing a baby diaper is actually very easy especially with disposable baby diaper. New dads like me might be nervous the first time when handling a baby who looks very fragile. When handling babies, hygiene and safety is very important. So follow the steps below on how to change your baby's disposable diaper: Wash your hand with soap (if possible disinfectant soap) and dry your hands. Prepare all your baby supplies: a clean diaper, baby wet wipes, cream if your baby gets diaper rashes. Place your baby on the bed or an elevated diaper changing platform. Unfasten the diaper tabs and stick them back to the diaper itself to prevent it from sticking anywhere else. With the diaper open, lift your baby's bottom up by holding both ankles with one hand and gently lifting upwards. While slightly lifted upwards, use baby wet wipes to wipe any poop from your baby's bottom. Put the dirty wet wipes inside the stained diaper, fold the diaper and stick the diaper tabs properly. Dispose the old diaper. When wiping your baby's genital area, make sure you wipe from front to back. This is to prevent bacteria infection on genital area. Lift your baby's bottom again to apply cream if your baby is prone to diaper rashes. You can also apply baby lotion to keep your baby's skin soft and supple. Open a fresh new diaper to near flat position. Raise your baby's bottom and place the new diaper below, place the half with the diaper tabs. And the the other front half of the diaper will be in between your baby's legs. Raise the front part of the diaper and cover your baby's genitals. If boy, make sure his penis is facing downward so that he won't urine over the top of the diaper. Disposable diapers usually have number markings that you can use as a guide to tape the tabs to the front of the diaper. Stick the tabs on both sides using the same number indicator so that it will be balanced. Make sure it is not too tight or too loose. Now you can dress your baby and clean your hands. Now who claimed swapping child's diaper was difficult?
