Episode Details

Eleven-month-old Ezra turns every diaper change into a wrestling match. Pediatric injury data shows 4,500 ER visits per year from changing table falls. This episode covers the floor-based approach that eliminates fall risk, the leg-lock containment technique, and the surprising power of a designated "changing object" like a silicone spatula or remote control. We break down the two-person assembly line method, the transactional snack strategy, and why ritual matters more than most parents realize. Practical tactics for keeping feces off the carpet.
