I'm assuming you've already taken your trip, but a bit of food for thought for the future, and to other's considering the idea, I'd respectfully suggest that for the olfactory comfort of your fellow passengers, please don't change diapers in the main cabin. Also, if there are any spills, someone on the next flight could very well be stuck in that seat.

Do you give Tylenol or whatever for pain? Pain meds aren't really required for health reasons, they're for the comfort of the patient. If a baby needed sleep but was unable to rest because of noise, distractions, etc., on the flight, I don't see anything wrong with it. Lack of rest is an invitation to illness. If you're medicating the child for your comfort, I could see the objection. I think it's different if you're doing it for theirs.
