Change table mats

We have a wooden change table that has edges, it is from Babyco. Which mat have you found best for your change table?

One with moulded sides? or just a flat pad to create cushioning?

Too many decisions to make.

Thanks

mine is plastic with foam inside and moulded up the sides,i found it stopped her from rolling around.. i got mine from BigW for $20..

it fits my change table fine and mine is from babyco as well!!

I have the same one -with the raised sides, from memory it was about $25 from Target and is plastic, I just use a cloth terry nappy over it too- easy to chuck in the wash if it gets dirty rather than pulling a cover on and off all the time! The sides do help them not to roll all the way over too.

I have a vinyl one got one for $14 from a baby shop the other was $10 at target for both I put a old pillowcase over it then every few days whip it off and wash it :)

just measure the change table surface area before you go to the shop, since the mats come in different sizes.

I got one with moulded sides too from Kmart. Best money I ever spent - she also used to sleep a lot on it as a newborn either on the floor with a bunny rug wrapped around the sides or on the bed.

I got one with the towelling cover cos it feels more snuggly. Plus I put a towel over it (kind of defeating the purpose of the cover!) so the cover stays clean.

we got the moulded plastic one, used a flanno nappy to line it. when he outgrew the cradle, I started using the mattress protector to line it.

I have a moulded vinyl covered rubber one too. I had to order the one that came for the particular change table becasue standard ones didn't fit. A cloth nappy folded in half fit perfectly down the centre for cover and I could just change it every day.

So noone recommends a specific cover for the change table pad then? Ours is bare vinyl and I was thinking that might be cold. I have terry nappies though, might just lay one of those down.

as I said I have vinyl I just place a pillowcase over it cheap easy to wash etc

I just used a flanellete nappy on mine most of the time.
I did buy a gorgeous change mat to go on top of the vinyl when I was pg, but it was pg brain & being extravagent, and it cost waaaaaaaaaay too much ($44, it was REALLY nice though and you cant buy the fabric in Australia)
