Step1
Lay a fresh diaper on a changing table, or on a towel or mat on the floor.
Step2
Place your baby, tummy side up, on top of the clean diaper.
Step3
Unfasten the diaper tabs on the soiled diaper.
Step4
Hold your baby's feet together and very gently lift them up, raising the baby's bottom. Use the clean part of the diaper to wipe away any excess stools, then fold over the soiled section of the diaper and set the old diaper aside.
Step5
Wipe your baby's buttocks and genitals gently from front to back with running water, wet cotton or sponge you should use baby wipes only in absence of running water source Don't forget the lower back and the skin folds of the thighs. (A baby girl might get stools around her labia and vagina, so clean that area gently with baby wipes.)
Step6
Lower your baby's bottom onto the clean diaper.
Step7
Pat the area dry with a towel.
Step8
Apply diaper-rash cream to the area.
Step9
Make sure to pull up the back of the clean diaper high enough to prevent leaks. Position the front of the diaper just under the baby's abdomen.
Step10
Bring the tabs around from the back of the diaper and fasten them to the front.
Step11
Turn diapering into a game of peek-a-boo to distract your baby
