A diaper changing table is a special table that allows easy diaper changing of babies. A table of counter top height, baby changing tables are equipped with shelving to hold supplies such as diapers, rubber pants, pins, ointment, training pants, baby wash cloths, change pads, etc. Baby diaper changing tables are most often equipped with vinyl changing pads on top of them, and a safety strap to secure active babies in place while changing diapers.
The daycare where I worked had 2 diaper changing tables in the nursery room.
I laid the baby down on top of the diaper changing table before bedtime, to change his diapers.
I noticed that the top shelf of the baby diaper changing table had two neatly folded stacks of cloth diapers on it, along with several pairs of rubber pants and some diaper pins.

Anyone familiar with cloth diapering has most likely heard the term "rubber diaper", or "rubber diapers" before. It's slang for rubber pants. Children are famous for calling rubber pants "rubber diapers", as one of my daughters did.
Mrs. Smith was in changing diapers on the baby and called out to Mrs. Jones to bring her in two diapers, and a rubber diaper.

The process of putting two diapers on a baby or child, rather than one. Mothers who use cloth diapers on their children quite often use the option of 'double diapering'.

The action of checking a baby's diaper(s) for wetness, soiling, or proper fit. Feeling the diapers for any wetness or soiling, or by doing a smell check.
After coming inside from doing some gardening, I washed my hands, and went into the baby's room to do a diaper check on the toddler.
I did a diaper check on the babies by gently pulling back the front of their rubbber pants.
My favourite method in which to do a diaper check is by inserting my index finger inside the elastic leg opening of a baby's rubber pants.

Towelling squares or (towelling nappies) as they are also known by and referred to as, are diapers made out of soft and fluffy 100% cotton terry towelling. Towelling squares are standard diapers in the U.K., and are traditionally used with pins and rubber pants just as our cloth diapers are here in Canada and the United States.
Mrs Johnson gathered up all three corners of her daughters towelling squares by pulling them snug and tight. She then swiftly pushed a nappy pin through the overlapped layers right at the very top centre front, and finished up by pulling on a pair of rubber pants over top.
While walking through the alleyway, I spotted a sagging clothesline with towelling squares and rubber pants hung up drying on it.

Cloth diapers are diapers that can be laundered and used over and over again, multiple times. Fashioned out of soft absorbent material such as flannel, birdseye cotton, or gauze, cloth diapers are most commonly fastened with safety pins and worn with protective waterproof panties over top. Traditional old-fashioned cloth diapers are rectangle or square in shape, sheet styled in appearance, and require folding in order to be used on a baby or child. Standard traditional cloth diapers are white in colour.
In the dayhome we strictly used cloth diapers on all of the children.
The kids ran around inside the home wearing nothing but rubber pants and cloth diapers.
The child toddled around in loosely pinned cloth diapers.

Nappies is another term that is used in many other countries to describe diapers. Nappies just like diapers, come in both disposable and cloth versions, and are used the exact same way as diapers are used here in Canada and the United States.
When naptime came, Mrs Smith put both the baby and toddler into their baby cots, and changed their nappies and rubber pants.
