    Remove sides of nappy.

    Then pull nappy from back to front in a wiping motion. Apply soft wipe or digging out of the herbaceous border depending on the depth of the offending item.

    Then apply speed. A quick movement, once, twice, three times - depending on situation. Ensure child is placed at 180 degrees and the angle of movement is no more than 45 degrees, dependent on the situation. Hold legs between fingers accordingly (like holding a chicken) and with strength to ensure the angle of wriggle does not exceed the angle of finger hold. Move quickly and efficiently, ignoring all crying, whinging or general messing about.

    Whip child up again at 45 degrees from the mat, before slipping nappy in place. Ensure no twisting and angling before ensuring child is in optimal postion and taping the sides up with minimal fuss.

    In case of operational disaster (ie. twists out of the way, to slow to get wipes in/nappy on or tantrum etc ) prepare exit strategy which consists of 'FFS, what have you been feeding them', 'it was like the Exorcist you had to see it', or ' this is womens work, I'm a highly paid professional you know' make sure the excuses are in ready.

    The marketing could use some work...
    My idea is the 'baby cock sock', it could be made of sponge so easy to wring out, maybe add a chemical so it changes colour when wet?

    See me on DD soon.

    the 'Holy Trinity' is obviously ecclesiatically opposed to the 'green ectoplasm'


    which is something I am familiar with

    Some good ideas. Instead learning to change a nappy under 10 seconds is my aim for those next 18 months.
