CLICKY! What Would You Do?

Here's the scenario:

Its 3:30am and you just got up for a feeding. You change the baby and feed him/her. Just as the baby is done eating and is passed out, he/she sharts.  It's not a full on poop but you're pretty sure there's at least a skid mark.

I have a hard time telling which farts are loaded, and Paula is quite the little fart monster sometimes. Usually it's either just gas, or the tiniest bit of a mark in her diaper, or it's a full on poop. So when she farts I don't rush to change her. Now, I can hear when the poop is flowing out of her, which is a terrifying sound, so I'd wake her up and change her at that point. But if she was recently changed and there was a questionable fart I'd most likely just wait it out or address it if she suddenly got mad.

I would have to change LO because he hates being dirty, and would grunt until he is changed.

If she had just fallen asleep, I would change her, but if she had been out for awhile and I was about to put her down, I would let it go as long as it didn't sound loaded. It's hard for me to answer, because big sharts wake my DD up anyway. It's only the small, dry-sounding farts that she can sleep through, and I don't worry about those.

If it were my baby I would change him.  He doesn't really have trouble getting to sleep.  Now if I had a baby that was really hard to get to sleep, I don't think I would disturb him for a shart.

DS screams when he poops do I don't have to worry about it.

I would check the diaper (risking waking him) to see if it was really just a shart or if it was more than that.  E is tricky like that.  I guess it would depend how often they are waking up too. if the are going to be sleeping in it for 8 hours I would change it but if they will be getting up in two hours I'd probably wait it out

It depends on whether or not he has any diaper cream on.  Or if he's already got any bit of diaper rash.  I always slather DS's bum with Vaseline for his night diapers so that I don't have to worry about a teeny little poop.  Obviously, if he already has a rash or seems to poop a lot, I would change him.

I can tell when DD poops because of the sound it makes so I change those because she blows out easily but when she sharts, it's just a tiny skidmark and I leave it if she is asleep. It doesn't make her fuss and she doesn't get diaper rashes so I see no harm in it!

I'd change him because if sitting in the poo were to result in diaper rash that will suck WAY more than waking him up one night for a diaper change!
