Hi everyone,
As a new parent, I'm finding myself having to change my baby's diaper in public restrooms quite often. However, I find it a bit intimidating and unhygienic. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or best practices for changing diapers while on the go? What items should I carry with me? How do I handle dirty diapers when there is no trash nearby? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi there,
I'm a fellow parent who has had plenty of experience changing diapers in public restrooms and on-the-go. Here are a few tips that have worked for me:
1. Bring a diaper changing mat: I always carry a small foldable diaper changing mat with me wherever I go. This way, I can lay it down on whatever surface I need to change my baby's diaper on, and not have to worry about any germs.
2. Always keep a few plastic bags: I make sure to keep a few plastic bags with me, so I can dispose of dirty diapers in them, and not have to worry about finding a trash can immediately.
3. Carry enough wipes: I always carry more wipes than I think I'll need because wiping up any messes can get messy and use up a lot of wipes.
4. Be discreet: When changing my baby's diaper in public, I try to find a somewhat private spot. I know that's not always possible, so I always try to be as discreet as possible.
5. Wash hands: After changing my baby's diaper, it's important to wash my hands thoroughly.
I hope these tips help you!
