Change Tables

I was at a local restaurant with my family today. Before we left, I had to do what many parents do before they leave with a baby. I had to change a diaper.

So I take the diaper bag and the baby, and head into the men” washroom.  Imagine my surprise when, in a family restaurant, there isn’t a change table in the washroom.  There was (barely) enough room on the counter to take care of business, so I made do with that.

On my way back to the table, I was told that there’s a change table in the women’s washroom.

Am I the only man who might sometime want to take my son out in public, while he’s still in diapers, without my wife?  What about single fathers (yes, they exist) who need to change a diaper in a restaurant?  In this case I was lucky enough to have enough counter space, but I’ve been in restaurants that don’t have counter space at all.

I’m debating whether I’ll go into the women’s room next time or just change him on the table.
