Diaper changes...

Do you change your little one's diaper before or after feeding?

Me too. But a lot of times he dozes off after this bottles. I used to change him after feeding and sometimes he would wake up. So lately I change him before I start to feed (majority of times its squishy). 

I guess I should have specified the diaper changes directly associated with feedings.

I change the diapers when I feel them wet, thick, or smell them...

When he needs both done (like when he wakes up in the middle of the night), I do the diaper first. Then he can doze off at the end of his feeding.

I did it the other way last night, because he seemed really really hungry, and that extra 5-10 minutes was long enough for him to pee again and overflow his diaper and get his clothes all wet.

I change LO's diaper all throughout the day whenever he needs to be changed. In the MOTN I don't change it unless it's a poopy diaper and first thing in the morning I feed him first and then change him.

I change before the feeding in the MOTN.  The only way that I wouldn't would be if you can clearly tell that it's hardly been peed in.

After eating. He always seems to go while, or directly following eating.
