How do you change a nappy?

If baby already has a nappy on you need to determine what type of nappy it is, either a disposable nappy or a towel nappy. You also need to have the following to hand; Baby wipes, baby powder (talcum powder), E45 cream in case of nappy rash and a soft towel. For a disposable nappy, undo nappy by the side tabs on baby's hips, remove old nappy, wrap in a ball shape, with soiled parts facing inwards, discard. Clean baby with baby wipes then dry baby with a soft towel. Apply baby powder, ensuring baby is dry. Slip a fresh disposable nappy under baby and fasten at the sides on baby's hips with the sticky fixing tabs provided. Ensure baby has room to move but not too much room that the nappy falls off baby. The same procedure is used for a towel nappy except safety pins are used to fasten and keep nappy on baby. Great care needs to be taken when using safety pins to ensure baby is not pricked with pins. If baby shows signs of redness, when baby has been cleaned and dried, before applying baby powder, apply E45 cream after baby has been cleaned with baby wipes. Ensure cream is well rubbed in to any inflamed areas. Then apply baby talcum powder. If baby does develop a 'nappy rash', redness on the skin on baby's bottom or front, ensure nappy is changed more regular, in order to aid the clearing up of the rash.
