do we really need a changing pad/table in the very beginning for nighttime diaper changes? we'll have db in our room, in a cradle next to our bed for the first few months + have a dresser w/ changing pad on top in his future room down the hall. would it be enough to just have a supply of diapers + a cloth pad + wipes in our room, and change him on our bed?

glad it sounds do-able. i was thinking we'd just keep a basket or bin with diapers/wipes/cream next to our bed, until he moves into his room eventually. how many times a night do newborns need changing, by the way? [ Reply | More

I'm not getting one, forget it. I just got a changing pad. Then again my child will sleep in a Pack & Play for the first 4 weeks. [ Reply | More
