Changings on-the-go are tough enough as it is, but having to haul a supply of diapers big enough to waterproof the length of Lake Shore Drive just to get through one morning or afternoon of running errands or going to a playdate seems plain unfair - kind of like asking a thisclose to popping pregnant woman to put on her own socks or to give herself a rockin' pedi.
It's just not realistic, enjoyable or all that doable, especially once baby gains control of those sweet dimpled arms and legs and uses them as weapons - mainly to become an accomplished (and wiggly) escape artist-turned-flailing-octopus.
Wranglers used to - but not liking - grappling little ones will get good use out of portable and totally posh The Plush Pad from Ah Goo Baby (shown at top left in Jungle and Vintage in Pink, $47).
Instead of making the whole changing process look like something out of American Gladiators, its luxuriously cushy body-contouring memory foam is more likely to lull little ones into a soothing sense of calm, and since its trimmed with colorful, trendy fabrics with names like Spa, Rascal and Retro-Daisy, baby will have plenty to look at while her bum's alfresco.
Bonus: it rolls into a compact
cylinder and unfolds to a sprawling 2-feet by 2-feet squared.
