One quick toddler tip saved some embarrassing moments!
I think it’s only in Lakewood where you can be in an upscale clothing shop and a baby will take off her leggings and diaper, and instead of people being horrified, women will actually smile and give you advice.
(Well, that happened to me and that was the source of this tip.) I know that this tip might be matter-of-fact to many of you, since I hadn’t yet heard it (and I’ve been parenting for quite a while by now!), perhaps it will come in handy for a couple of you also sometime down the road.
If your baby likes to take off her diaper (there could be many reasons why) and you don’t want her too, put it on backwards. When the stickers are in the back, it’s much harder to reach them and remove the diaper at odd times. The diaper-removing could be a sign that they’re ready to train, or it could be that they’re just being mischievous. But whatever the reason, especially when you’re out and that diaper is very necessary, this is a simple solution.

Oh my! That is embarrassing! You can also put masking tape all around the diaper so they cant unseal it. For at night for the undressers I’ve put on a bathing suit (girls style) over the diaper and even a tshirt on top so they can’t take off the bathing suit to get to the diaper.
A hack from hubby says
My husband thought of this one- safety pin their onesie shut over the diaper

no

Not safe to put a safety pin it can open!
Baby pjs says
For undressers at night in the crib, we bought onesie pajamas without feet and put the zipper in the back. My baby cannot take them off, it worked for us.
S says
For the night undresser I put a footless onesie zip up pajama backwards so he can’t unzip
A says
Glad I am not the only one whose baby does this!
Thank you!!
