What to Look For
Changing tables should be a safe place for your baby and a comfortable place for you. Before you select one, check out the following features:

• Guardrails: These are necessary in order to prevent any falls, but you need to be able to comfortably move and change your baby while reaching over them.
• Safety Straps: Like the guardrails, safety straps are another safety feature that is designed to prevent falls and injuries. Take some time to play with them and make sure you are comfortable.
• Sturdiness: Changing tables should be sturdy and durable. Give the table a good shake to make sure it feels strong and sturdy. Be sure to inquire about any weight limits.
