Diaper change before or after night feeding?

Question

I know every baby is different and I’ll need to establish routines that work best for my baby and myself. But for this one I’m just curious as to what has worked best for you, changing baby’s diaper before they’re feeding in the middle of the night or after?

Answer

Before because babies get relaxed when they eat and you don’t wanna rustle them around after they’ve basically gone back to sleep

Answer

I change my son after I feed him otherwise he throws a huge fit for his milk. He typically goes back to sleep after I change him. But you gotta figure out what works for your baby

Answer

I have to change before because it wakes my daughter up too much and feeding makes her sleepy again. If I change after feeding I have to spend an hour getting her to fall back asleep

Answer

Well my son has been sleeping through the night since 1 month old, but we changed him before feeding.

Answer

I do it before usually if she’s not too fussy yet. Just because I don’t like waking her back up and because moving her around to change causes her to spit up after a feeding

Answer

I do it before. If baby poops, I change again, but that's rare.

Answer

Depends on the baby & their age. My little one has to be changed after he eats because he poops at the end of a feeding. But diaper changes usually wake baby up so if possible it’s better to do it before feedings
