Exclusive Business Use

[SilverSabre25]

I'm rearranging my home in preparation for my new baby being born at the end of May. Up until now, I've had an extra bedroom in use as 100% business use as a nap room and diaper changing room. I want to keep this arrangement, but I want to check something. I'll need to change my own baby's diapers and put him down for naps during the daycare day, and won't be able to run upstairs to do this--if I change him and nap him in the daycare naproom during daycare hours only, will that still count as 100% business use since it's during business hours? Or because it's my own child (even though it's during business hours) does that mean I have to t/s% it?

Unfortunately, using an exclusive business use room even once for personal purposes destroys the exclusive use of the room. Changing the diapers of your own child in the room or napping in the room is a personal activity even though it occurs during business hours.

Crud. I was afraid of that. OH well...
