Newborn babies poop a lot. Which means that you’ll be doing a lot of diaper changes right after you have a baby.
Think about this for a second: If your baby’s nursery is upstairs, and you hang out in the living room a lot, are you going to run up and down the stairs for every one of those diaper changes? You shouldn’t!

The solution is to create a diaper caddy or diaper changing station on every floor of your house. Our house is 3 stories and I have a diaper caddy on every floor. Best. Thing. EVER!

These little baskets are super simple to put together, and they’ll make your life with a newborn so much easier. Here’s what you’ll need to make it happen:
1. A diaper caddy
I love cute, divided baskets with pockets to hold all your supplies. But honestly, all you need is some kind of basket or container that’s big enough to hold a good supply of diapers and wipes.

If you look around your house, you probably already own something that will work.
2. Something to lay your baby on during changes
I’m a big fan of changing babies on the floor. (Hey, they can’t roll off the changing table if they’re already on the ground!)
So I keep a swaddle blanket or a changing pad rolled up in my diaper caddy and whip it out when I need it.
3. Diapers
Of course!!! Toss a good supply in there. You’ll use them before you know it.
4. Wipes
By the way, if you’re using cloth diapers and wipes, you’ll also need a bottle of wipe solution. I keep mine in a spray bottle.
5. Diaper cream
6. Hand sanitizer
If it’s winter, I also throw in some hand cream for me because my hands get so dry from washing and sanitizing all day long.
7. Vaseline and/or baby lotion

This just tends to come in handy when I notice a little rash or sore spot during diaper changes.
8. An extra baby outfit
Just in case you have an explosion and need to start fresh!
9. Plastic bags or a trash can nearby
Newborn diapers don’t smell that bad, so I usually just toss them in the nearest trash can.
You can keep a trash bag or plastic shopping bag right next to your diaper caddy to make it even easier. (If you’re using cloth diapers, a small wet bag will do the trick.)
That’s it! You’re ready to rock and roll.
Check out my Amazon shopping list for diaper changing supplies for anything that you don’t already have, and to see all of my favorites.
All that’s left to do is toss it all in your diaper caddy or basket, and place it in a convenient location. Now you’ll be fully ready to change diapers anytime you need to with as little inconvenience as possible. Awesome. 🙂
