changing table- yes or no?

While you are all excited about the new baby and are getting ready to set up your baby's room you will be faced with a whole lot of purchasing choices. Changing table is definitely one of them and here is my take on it.
Yes a changing table helps a great deal. It helps you manage the time in a much better way and is more comfortable(being the correct height) than trying to change on the floor or elsewhere. You will have all the required accessories right at hand and within reach for little unexpected emergencies.

However instead of going out and getting a regular changing table which has open shelves, we bought a dresser instead and secured the dresser to the wall and stuck a changing pad with wide velcro straps to the top surface of the dresser. What we have is a changing table/dresser for sanav that is the perfect height, doubles as a dresser as well for now and will eventually become his dresser when he grows up.
