good than changing table
Oh, I totally agree, Stitchnripper.
Waist height changing sure did beat bathroom floor changing, which I remember doing when I used to babysit!
Do remember how convenient it was having everything right handy in the bins to change the baby/child, though I only ever remember a couple of homes that had baby changing tables.
I remember how I would always stick the open diaper pins into the padded plastic pad when changing diapers, and I remember the tables had a thin chrome bar at the end where you could hang the baby's rubber pants after you pulled them off.
Being able to secure an active little one with the handy strap was an added plus!
Yes, to lowering/raising the crib mattress as my kids grew!
