How long in a dirty diaper? HELP!

Question

I usually change my baby as soon as I know he has popped. 
He has been fussy and crying for the last 4 hours. On and off the boob. Crying. Won't settle. 
Just as he finally fell asleep I think he pooped. I'd hate to leave him in it but don't want him to wake as I change him either.
What do I do?

Answer

Let him sleep. When he is uncomfortable he will let you know

Answer

If it's just a nap, let him sleep. If it's for bedtime, change him!

Answer

Change him as soon as he wakes up.

Answer

Let him sleep. If you're breastfeeding, their poop isn't as bad on their bottoms either, So it's ok if you need to wait a little longer to change them. I was told that little tidbit by a lactation consultant.

Answer

I agree let him slp! I hesitate changing at night because as soon as I do baby is wide awake again!
