Hels   10 #14 Posted August 24, 2006 A friend advised me to get one of those 'changing stations' the one's with a bath in them. I thought it was a bit of a luxury item but as i'd been saving up £2 coins for months and had enough to one I shelled out. Got one from Mothercare about £54 I think.  It's got to be THE most used item of baby equipment i bought. I'm only 5'2" and it's a wee bit on the high side for me but changing baby on a changing mat on the floor (like I did for my daughter all those years ago) would have really done my back and knees in. The two shelves are deep enough to store everything I need - nappy sacks, wipes, nappies, spare outfit/vests, baby toiletries, soft towels etc.  There are a few minor design issues - the base of the bath is raised slightly so you have to tip it up to empty the dregs using the attached pipe.
