I have a change table with the bath included. It was a little difficult to get used to at first, but not so bad after our confidence in handling Molly increased. She out-grew it though, so we moved her into the big bath. I use the change table still. A mat on the floor is no good for Molly because she simply can't stay still. Its irritating! She would be all over the room. The change table makes the nappy change fast and effective. She's pretty long for it though, and her feet sometimes hang over the end!
