i give me a rattle to play with to distract him, or he likes my watch so i hold the one hand up for him to talk to and grab while i change him with other hand

DD doesnt cry but she likes being "free"...so I try to let her air it out for a minute or two before I close up the diaper...but if I dont let her air it out...then she tries to roll away...its like a game to her.

Kelsey likes to roll over and flash her naked tushy when I change her. It's not hard getting her back over, but I think once she starts to crawl I will have a different opinion.

He doesn't cry but is SUPER wiggly. Some diapers have gone on crooked lately but have done the job.

I have a feeling this is just the beginning of the 'wiggliness'..I'll just have to learn to be a bit faster, lol!

DD has been wiggling for months and NOT just during changing times. Her nickname is now, appropriately, "Miss Wiggles".

Yep, I usually just distract him with some toy. But my 5 month old is still easier than my 2 year old was...thank goodness she potty trained LOL!

YES!! We like to call him the wombat - not sure why; just seems to fit!

DS isn't too bad. I raspberry his belly a lot so he waits for it. He also likes to put his hand on my arm as I am changing him, kind of like he is guiding me. I think that keeps his interest.

He doesn't cry. He just thinks it's hilarious to wiggle away and make it harder to get him changed. Oh and now he likes to play with his goods and tries to take his new diaper off to do so. Argh. :-)
