Changing the diaper-­‐2
Make sure you have everything you need before you start
changing the diaper. Never leave the baby alone on a change
table or bed, because he may wriggle and fall.
• Lift the baby’s back by holding on to his ankles to prevent him
moving
• Roll up the dirty diaper to halfway under the baby, so that the
clean side will be outermost
• Lift the baby’s legs and clean his bottom carefully
• Use a damp cloth or wet wipe to clean your child from the
front. Always clean the baby front to back; in the case of a girl,
this step will help to reduce the possibility of bacteria reaching
the vulva and causing infection.
• Lift your baby’s legs and clean his behind.
• Lay your baby on his back after cleaning his behind and drying
it. Then lift him up a little and put half of the new diaper beneath
him.
• Bring the other half out between his legs then fold the upper
part of it beneath his belly button if it is not yet healed properly.

• Fasten the diaper by bringing the two edges together and
attaching them firmly to one another so as to avoid leaks.
