Improvise a Diaper
(5 steps)
|
|
When necessity makes you the Mother (or Father) of invention...

It's two o'clock in the morning, little Jamie's crying like crazy and you've run out of diapers. As if it wasn't difficult enough to even see your baby through the fog of sleepiness, now you have to solve the problem of no more diapers. It's a scenario that makes even experienced diaper-changers join in the crying chorus.
Fortunately, it's possible to improvise--and no, it doesn't involve trash bag liners and duct tape. The solution to your and your baby's problem is near at hand, as this 2torial shows.
Before you begin
Have all the diaper-changing items by your side, as well as your napkin and safety pins. If you're not familiar with the usual guidelines of cleaning and changing, follow the procedure in 2torial: Change a Diaper.
Place a towel, protective cloth diaper, or changing cloth over the table. If the baby is on table from which he or she could fall, don't leave or take your attention from the baby, even for a second. Always keep one hand on the baby. If no safe place is available, make certain that someone holds the baby at all times.
