How to get my son to not cry when I change his diaper?

lol i sing to my son when he fusses when i try to change his diaper.. now dont laugh but i sing "another diaper bites the dust" (another one bites the dust by Queen) to him and he absolutely loves it.. and by the time we are done changing his diaper he wants me to sing it some more... just try to make it fun and exciting for your son

have you tried talking to him, to take his mind off of you changing him?

I have no solid advice for you as my son has yet to arrive, however, what I've heard is that above all you need to make diaper time a pleasant experience. Maybe take a minute or two to blow raspberries on his belly, tell him how sweet he is, nibble at his toes... generally get him into a good mood before going for the diaper. Then keep the loving, silly tone in your voice as you change him... finish with more raspberries or a baby massage. I get these tips from my mom, who is SO good with babies... she just has a way with them. If I'm half as natural a mother as she, I'll consider myself lucky. She says if diaper time is seen as pleasant by you, baby will get the same impression. Hope this helps!

Try to distract him like singing a lullaby songs to him, cooing him or better yet change his diaper where the TV is. Its just a normal phase eventually it will pass out. Try to be more tolerant. Let him cry as loud as he likes to. From what old people told me before, crying is good for baby's lungs.

yes I think like you

This happens to me as well. I have twin girls, fourteen months and when I have to change them, they run away from me. When I catch them they scream until it is over, so yes I consider myself a champion quick changer! What I have noticed with my girls is that if I give them something to take their attention off what I am doing, like something they normally can't play with, then they could care less what I am doing. Like say, a hanger. Both of my girls love to play with their hangers from their closet, but I normally don't allow them to. When they are fussing on the changing table, here you go honey, have a hanger. Also, maybe try something that they absolutely love. In the morning when I get them up, they both were terrible about getting changed, now I let them have their blanky on the table with them, and we play peekaboo while I change them. It has made quite a difference for us. Hope that helps. Happy diaper changing!

Try distracting him, like making funny faces, or singing to him. Or let him hold a favorite toy while you are changing him. It sounds like he just doesn't like to keep still while you are changing his diaper or he is mad because you took him away from something he was having fun with.

If he cries because you are taking him from the TV, turn the TV off and then he won't think he's missing anything. Also, if he likes the TV so much maybe it should be a treat - rather than a constant presence. Most babies would rather play with their mommies than watch TV anyway.

my daughter went through this phase at about the age of 1. it lasted a few months all i could do was change it as fast as i could. i tried giving her a toy to distract her but nothing really seemed to work.

How old is he? If he's old enough to be so into a TV show that he doesn't want to miss any of it then he's probably old enough to be potty trained. If he's not old enough to be potty trained then you could try making sure that he's comfortable when he's being changed...perhaps the changing table or the floor is simply not comfortable to lay on. He may also be crying because it is cold. Also, just FYI - studies are now showing that children who watch tv before the age of two have a higher chance of autism than those who don't.
