Middle-of-the-night diaper changes were a routine part of life with my baby before he learned to sleep through the night. I struggled to find a good night light that would work for this. It had to be dim enough and focused enough, and near his butt! My changing pad sits on top of my dresser and it takes up nearly the full width of it, so I didn’t have space to put anything on top of the dresser that would take up much room. After doing a lot of looking around at “changing table lights” and getting frustrated that nothing fit my needs, I found the perfect one.

Changing pads are a pretty prominent feature of any nursery. A piece of advice we got before baby came was to get multiple sets of changing pad covers. But changing pad covers were so expensive, at $30 each! And the baby was constantly peeing all over the pad every time he was changed, that we literally had to do laundry constantly to launder those changing pad covers. Then, we discovered these awesome pads.
