Silly Question...when you use a changing table...

....do you put the baby's head to the right or to the left?

AND

Are you left of right handed?

Now I havent had a changing table since my eldest daughter was an infant. So I generally just have the baby in front of me with their feet at my knees...

BUT...if I do use a changing table...or changing station...Caden's head is to the RIGHT...

I ask this b/c I have been told that I change babies left handed b/c I put his head to the right...

Re: Silly Question...when you use a changing table...

DH and I are lefties, and DS's head is on the right

Mom is a righty, and she puts his head to the left

so we fit that theory.......Chat Icon


a more direct way to determine diaper changing handedness is to pay attention to what hand tends to do the dirty work.... which hand has the wipes Chat Icon

I am righty and put his head to the left. DH is a lefty and puts his head to the right. It always drives me crazy when he puts him on the table and I am going to change him, I have to turn him around Chat Icon

DH is a righty and puts his head to the right.

My sister is a lefty and puts her DC to the left.

Blew that theory out of the water! Chat Icon

And, by the way, I am a lefty and put his head to the right.

Do you put the baby's head to the right or to the left?
Left

AND

Are you left of right handed?
Right-handed

Very good questions...I never thought about this!

What arm did you hold DS in when you feed him?

Lucas was cradled in my left arm - right hand holding the bottle but DH (also right handed) was more comfortable the other way.
