akins58442 Posted October 11, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) I'm an avid Princess Cruiser and we will be taking our first cruise with our 10mo old. I cannot recall seeing them on board anywhere. Are they there?? We really don't want to run to the cabin each time. Thoughts or any other advice for an Elite member with a baby for the first time. Thanks Edited October 11, 2014 by akins58442 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerin Posted October 11, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Not certain, you may want to ask on the Family Board. You could always pack a travel or disposable changing pad(s) in your diaper bag or stroller and find a quiet corner in the bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted October 11, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I've never seen a changing table on any ship on any of the four cruise lines I've taken. Just do what parents have done for decades and bring a changing pad with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akins58442 Posted October 11, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted October 11, 2014 We have the changing roll. But curious about counter space. Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shredie Posted October 11, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 11, 2014 We have the changing roll. But curious about counter space. Thanks everyone. Counter space is minimal. Have you checked on the Family cruising board to see what options you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' Chick Posted October 11, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I don't recall seeing enough counter space to use for this purpose...but then by time we've switched to Princess, this wasn't an issue. But I don't recall seeing a changing table on Carnival either. I would just stash a changing pad in your diaper bag (I'm guessing you'll be using an umbrella stroller onboard -- get one with a storage basket and shade canopy).

SeaGeg Posted October 12, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Was on Golden with my 7mo daughter in August. No changing tables, and we just used a changing pad on the bed. Never changed her anywhere other than our cabin while onboard. Public bathrooms didn't have a place to change her, but it wasn't ever inconvenient to head back to the cabin anyways.

hansi Posted October 12, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Why do you want to change your baby? Aren't you happy with the one you've got?:D:D:D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom33 Posted October 12, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I do not recall seeing a changing table in the restrooms either. Of course I was never looking for one on my previous cruises. Now that I have joined the ranks of the worlds best Grandmas, I will make a point of finding out when I cruise the Regal.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerin Posted October 12, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Please update when you find out, I'm curious as I'm sure other parents of babies are too. On some of our cruises there have been changing tables and on others no. Unless you are looking for them, most people don't notice anyway so it's useless to ask the general public if they are available. Sort of like on airplanes. Did you know planes have changing tables? Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SadieN Posted October 13, 2014 #13 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Did you ask on the Family Board? They would know over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JimmyVWine Posted October 13, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 13, 2014 There are fold-down ironing boards in all of the self-serve laundry rooms. Do those count? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
