Nappy changes......how often??

[Washersaurus]

Sorry this is another nursery related rant....

Nursery staff told me that DS was so wet when they changed him earlier that instead of putting a fresh motherease onesize nappy on him they put him into a disposable nappy (which they took off before I arrived).

I was slightly peeved they had put him in the disposable but didn't say anything.....when I looked at his report sheet for the day it turns out he was soaking wet because he hadn't been changed for over 4 hours.

This is a regular occurance (he only goes to nursery 1.5 days per week) but I think 4 hrs is too long for a child to be in a nappy, should I say something or am I just being silly??? [hmm}

hi, i deffinatly think you should say something! i used to be a nursery nurse and its usual to change every 2-3 hrs (we used to have a rota to make sure), but its easy to let it slip on a busy day. a gental reminder might be needed. dont forget you are paying them to look after your child.

very odd alright, dd's playscool didn't go by rota, they just did what i would do and checked her every half hour or so.

she's potty trained now and while she was learning they were fab for bringing her every half hour too

i change ds every 4 hours

unless he's pooed of course.

DS is every 4 hours... if he's lucky

Bamboo lasts much longer than a MEOS

Yeah,I agree,4 hours is way too long for cloths.every three hours max ,2 1/2 usually.they need to sort this out.

Can I just add that i would be changing someone else's child more often!!
