Speaking of changing tables...

I already have a changing table in dc1's room, and when dc2 comes, dc1 will be 14 mos old (still needing a changing table).

Should I buy a separate changing table for dc2's room? I was thinking this because both of my babies will be in different diaper sizes then, and it might be more convenient to store the diapers and other stuff separately.

What have you done in the past? Or, what would you do if you were in my situation with 2 under 2?

Thanks! Chat Icon

ETA: My kids' rooms will be across the hall from each other, so it's not like they'll be in totally separate areas of the house.

I wouldnt. I never bought a changing table. I put a changing pad on top of the dresser and it was gone in a week. I hated it. I changed DS on the bed, the floor, PNP, where ever. I plan on doing the same this time around.

It's up to you. I need a changing table. So I will be getting another. My CT is not $$$ it's $89 with 15% off. The CT will be upstairs right by the cib. I will also have the pnp downstairs set up during the day. This baby doesn't have a dresser, only a crib and an amoir so I need a CT.

I would keep the same changing table and get separate baskets for diaper size differences.

there's no way in heck i'm gong to bring my screaming newborn into DS's room in the middle of the night to use his changing table when he's sleeping! she will have her own. DS's is a changing pad on a dresser--not an actual changing table but i can't imagine not having it. plus there's no room for DD's diapers in DS's room

she is either getting a dresser/pad or changing table depending on the furniture i pick.

oh, great selling point! TOTALLY good point!!!

My CT is inexpensive, and I think I'm going to just get another one. Now that you mentioned this scenario, it's a done deal. There's no way in helll that I will wake dc1 up just to use the CT for dc2.

On another note, I LOVE the furniture that I have for dc1, and I think I'm going to get the same exact furniture for dc2.

Cheesy? What do you ladies think? It's dark wood furniture and I love the way it matches the decor in my house.
