Baby carrier and toilet tips
Have you ever been out with your baby and had trouble with the toilet?
What should I do when I want to go to the bathroom but no one can leave my room? There are many hints in the experiences of senior moms and dads.
Can I put it in the toilet with my baby carrier?
When you go out, if you have family or friends with your companion, you can leave it there and go to the bathroom, but it can be a problem when you're out with your baby.
If you are holding a baby with a baby carrier, I'm curious if you can use the toilet as is.
To put it simply, according to the experiences of senior moms, it can be used. However, there are a few tips and things to be aware of, so let's take a look.
Baby carrier x toilet tips
First of all, what you wear is a big factor.
To use the toilet while holding the baby in your baby with a baby carrier, a skirt or pants with an elastic waist are useful. High-waisted pants, tights and stockings are difficult to lift and lower, so they are not suitable for going out with your baby. It is safer to avoid the belt as it is difficult to remove or retighten. Be careful when choosing clothes.
When changing directions or lifting and unloading your underwear, you will need more space than you can enter alone. We recommend a wider private room, such as a multi-purpose toilet. Once you've entered the private room, if you sit down, the bottom of the carrier and the baby's butt will hit your thighs, making it difficult to sit, so either raise the carrier up or loosen it to adjust it to prevent it from thrusts before sitting down.
What should you be careful about?
You need to be very careful not to let your baby fall from the carrier as it will loosen the carrier or crouch down the upper body. When changing position, be sure to hold your hands in place and take care of your baby's safety.
It is a good idea to make sure your baby's feet do not touch the toilet bowl, while keeping it open a little while not putting too much strain on the hip joint. It is also important to be careful not to let the baby carrier belt get inside the toilet or the hem of mom's clothes get on the floor.
When leaving the private room, check whether your clothes are uneven, such as getting caught on the baby carrier.
Is it okay to use a baby chair?
It's also a good idea to use the baby chairs that are installed in your private room. If you're not used to it, some children cry or go wild because they don't like the baby chair, so you may need to think about it, such as talking to them or attracting attention with toys.
It appears that most baby chairs are eligible for ages from around 5 months. Check before use. According to senior moms, a baby sitting in a baby chair unlocked the door! It seems that there is also an accident. Due to hygiene issues, be sure to keep an eye on things on walls or private rooms.
If you have plenty of space on the back, switching to a carrying bag is recommended as it will be easier to complete the toilet than to hold it.
Together with the stroller
If you are going out with a stroller, you can also enter the stroller with a large private room. However, there are not all private rooms that are spacious enough, such as multi-purpose toilets, so you may have trouble finding a toilet.
In addition, the multi-purpose toilets also have ostomate-friendly toilets, in which case they are equipped with equipment for disposing excretions at a low position. Be careful where your stroller is placed to prevent your baby from touching carelessly.
What about dad and baby?
When Dad and his baby go out together, Dad seems to be worried about the toilet too. When using a toilet while standing, the baby carrier and baby block your vision, so everything is groping around. Just like in women's toilets, there is no place to put the baby, such as a changing diaper bed or baby chair, so it is a struggle that is even more difficult than mom.
In my senior father's experience, many people said that choosing clothes that are easy to lift and lower with soft materials such as sweatpants is relatively easy to use.
Preparation is recommended
It's a relief to check whether there are large private rooms, multi-purpose toilets, and where they are located before you go out. In addition, if you practice at home with the situation in mind, you may be able to understand the points and tips to keep in mind, so you may not have to panic.
