Try giving her a small toy to play with while changing. I try to keep one near the diapers that he only gets during changes so that it's a treat. It worked for Sarah too.

LMAO!!!! My DS is always interested in what's going on everywhere else in the room. Like Cathy said, a toy or practically anything - my DS is happy holding a sock - will help.

I have been trying the toy and the sock and that helps most of the time, she wants to roll and sit up.

I took her to the doctors office today and it took me more than 10 minutes to get her dressed. Even a nurse checked on me Chat Icon

Nope, you are not the only one. DS moves around too much, tries to turn over, his legs are up in the air. He won't stay still.

DS is always twisting around because he has to look at everything around him. Sometimes giving him someting distracts him but sometimes it doesn't.

Wait til you have to learn to clean up poop while the kid is standing up. Invest in a pack of Pull Ups!!!

I hear ya! I can't even get my DD to eat if my 2-1/2 year old son is in the same room. All she is doing is paying attention to him and not her food.

Yeah, that's basically how Ava is, but I change her on the bed or on the floor now and I've found that getting her dressed, if I let her sit up, she won't squirm. Then, when I put her pants on, I let her stand up and hold onto me. I just change her diapers quickly before she can really move. I give her toys, but she just wants to get away anyway.

Re: Mom's of 6-7 Month Olds...is it just me

Ohh my - that is the worst part for us - she is constantly rolling and wanting to sit up and literally wrestles me to get the diaper on. She is so strong!!! Its a battle - some days ill give her a sock or an extra diaper to hold and it sometimes holds her attention for alittle bit. You aren;'t the only one rest assured!Chat Icon

DS is impossible to change. We give him a toy and sing his favorite songs as loud as we can and it helps a little bit.
