what do you do?

Question

Baby is sleeping and it farts (most likely pooped) do you change their diaper or wait for them to wake up?

Answer

Mine sleeps through changes or if she wakes up she goes right back to sleep once she's swaddled.  But I don't leave it because I don't want it to cause a rash.  Or leak. I breastfeed so that'll put her back to sleep too...or bottle.

Answer

Just check it… If there's poop, definitely change it. Baby will get a giant rash if you let them sit in it.

Answer

I change, I wouldn't want to sleep in my own poop and neither will I let baby do that. But my LO wakes up as soon as he poops so I change right then

Answer

Let baby sleep. As they get older it's harder to put them back to sleep. And i dont want mine thinking I'm waking up to change him every time he has a wet diaper in the next two plus years.

Answer

My son almost never poops when he's farting while sleeping. Farting during a feeding is completely different for him. During the last changes of the night I just put on a little diaper rash cream and he's fine. He's only ever gotten diaper rash the first time he slept through the night. During the day I just let him be since he doesn't sleep through changes and is changed right after feedings which is when he poops.

Answer

Yep because it can cause a rash.
