Baby changing

Hi All,
Has anyone noticed that in public toilets baby changing tables are always right at the end (far away from the sinks). Who thought of this? How do mums wash their hands after changing their baby without leaving them unattended??!

Wipe hands with baby wipes, put dc back in push chair and then wash hands is what I usually do.

But yes, I think a lot of public architecture is designed by men and is generally rubbish for (usually) women with pushchairs/small dc.

And who on earth thought (and continues to think) that the worlds loudest hand dryers are a good idea in baby changing rooms?! My LO hates them and we've had several meltdowns because of hearing the hand dryers either in the ladies when others use them or by the pram setting them off as the space is so tight!

I keep a bottle of hand gel in my nappy bag for this reason.
