My daughter is almost 15 months old and lately, everytime I try to change her diaper, she'll scream and will cry non-stop. My husband thinks that she might have a sore bum or something wrong with her which I disagree because whenever we were at the mall or somewhere else and I changed her diaper, she's pretty much okay with it and no crying at all... Is this normal or unusual? For now, I just wait for her to calm down first or I try to play with her during diaper change which helps a bit... But please mums, I need more advices and recommendations... Thanks a lot!!!

my son is 15 months, and does not like his diaper changed! he crys, wiggles, kicks, etc.

So everytime I have to change him, I simply give him something to play with e.g. a brush, toy, sock, etc.

So her behaviour is normal.

I know it hard but it is totally normal. My 15 month old son fuss and wiggles all around when i change is diaper. He also has to pinch is wee wee every time. I try to just change his diaper as fast as I can and give him one of his favorite toys to get his mind on something else. Maybe try changing her on the bed instead of the floor. Maybe she just doesn't like being on the floor so low.
Well I hope this helps. Good luck!

My daughter is the exact opposite, she'll be all calm at home and scream and wiggle when we are out. I think with her it's just that there are things to do when we are out and she wants nothing to do with getting her diaper changed.

normal normal normal!! lol normally at home especially they love their independance hey have, and having to stop what ever they are doing to have their bum changed they dont like it its simple as that my son does it all the time i just ignore him and carry on at the end of the day nappy needs changing wether they like it or not, id ignior the crying to be honest but all children do it around this time, my son generally runs off as soon as i get a nappy and wet wipes out hahhaa
