Soiled Diaper - Help!

Yesterday, I had gone to a hotel. I think it was called Ethelle or something (it didnt register in my mind). We were waiting for food to arrive at the restaurant, when I realized that I had to change my baby's diaper. The only restroom was located in the lobby and this was so small that there was no way I could do what I had planned. So I approached the reception and explained the situation and asked whether they had a restroom which had a changing table or some area where I could change the diaper. They looked quite disinterested and said that they had only one restroom (some hotel!). I had to take my baby to the parking lot, lay him down in the car and change his diaper. With a cranky baby, changing diaper in the car can be quite comical. This made me conscious to the fact that few places have this facility.

I really appreciate lifestyle for their feeding/mother's room. Lifestyle provides a baby lotion, nursing pads for the mother(!), baby powder, baby wipes, and nappies. (This is why I love lifestyle. Well, also because of the clothes :)) This room was also there in the airport. A huge room with two neat beds, a TV (!), a wash basin and curtains for privacy. When I had gone to SKC, a shopping complex, they had asked me to use the trial room. At least they offered something! I think more places should have such facilities. Makes our lives so much easier.
