The first step is to be prepared. Gather up a couple of diapers, wipes, ointments...anything you'd need to change the baby. For safety reasons you don't want to be searching for something with a wiggly baby waiting for you. I also always open a wipe or two and have it unfolded and laid out ready to use.
WHile you're there, be sure th area is safely prepared for the baby. Is your changing surface secure? Is the area free of cords or other potential problems for your baby?
