Many parents believe that the purchase of a baby changing table is unnecessary. I must admit that at one time I considered them to be optional. I had them tagged and filed as the first piece of baby furniture to discard if the nursery became crowded. However, soon after my second baby was born, I reassessed the situation and realized that I may have been wrong to discount the advantages of a changing table.
With my first baby, the crib was my chosen spot for baby cleanup. For spur of the moment changes the nursery rug might be called into play if I was in a pinch. By the time baby number two showed up, the wear and tear on this mommy's lower back began to show up. I could see the need for some relief from leaning over the crib rails to deal with a squirming infant. The time had come to reconsider my opinion as to whether or not a baby changing table was worth the sacrifice of space in the nursery.
Convertible Crib Rail
I made the trip to the baby center for a test run to help me make the decision whether or not to invest my money in a changing table that I had earmarked for a baby armoire. I was ever so pleasantly surprised to find that I didn't have to scrap my plans for a baby armoire completely. I found baby changing tables that are convertible into an armoire. Could it be that there would be more benefits to the purchase of a changing than the cure of my back ache?
In my mind, the storage capabilities of a changing table were limited to a few baby toiletries. Imagine my surprise when I found that along with providing a great surface for changing baby, there would be loads of storage space. All the drawers and stackable units that I could purchase as I needed were making inroads into tearing down my staunch resistance to this particular piece of baby furniture.
What ultimately convinced me to break down, write the check and load the baby changing table in the SUV was finding a piece in cherry that was a perfect match for the style of our home's nursery. Whether or not this handy piece of baby furniture will have an effect on my tired back or not is yet to be seen. It's really too soon to tell, but even if my back continues to ache, I'm still happy with all the storage and the looks of the changing table.
