How are you securing your changing pad to the top of the dresser? We are using a regular dresser, it doesn't have the little attachable walls like a changing table. We were just going to buy a contoured pad, but now that I'm looking at it, I am not sure how it's going to stay there.

same
ours does too.
We used the end top of our dresser for ds and we will use it for this baby too.
Good question. We have a dresser and I'm hoping we get the changing pad - the contoured one, at the shower this weekend. I'll be interested in seeing what suggestions are!
If nothing else, I'm sure we'll rig something up to secure it. My DH is kind of a MacGyver when needed...
We are using a regular dresser and just plopping the changing pad on top. I don't see it being a problem since there will be a hand on her at all times. When she gets bigger and is super active and squirmy we might find it's easier to change her on the floor.
Same here too.

Great post SB!
LOL So there with you LULU I figure does it really need to be safe?!
This. Most do.
This!
This when the furniture was delivered, they just attached the pad to the dresser by screwing in the tabs to the back
This. Totally stable.
Glad to know that my plan has been tested and is a success! This is exactly what I planned on doing.
our changing pad came with the screws to put it on the back of the dresser too, but we never quite got around to it (DD is 2 now) and I wish I had put something down.
The top of the dresser has some marks on it from sliding the pad back and forth. I think they'd come out with some polishing, but I'm not sure.
This
me! I am not totally sure yet because we don't have the changing pad, but it will be something similiar to what you put in showers not to slip on. I have seen smaller ones that look nice for purposes like this.
our plan too
