Confused about Nappy Changing

[Cinnabon]

Dear All,
We had friends over recently and their little girl needed a nappy change. The Mum started to change her on our sofa in front of all of us! I asked her to change her baby upstairs and she refused saying that on eday I will have my own kids so I have to get used to the smell of poo. Am I right to be upset by this? Was she right to change the pooey nappy in front of everyone and on my leather sofas?
Many thanks in advance

Many thanks for everyones replies, I really appreciate the advice.
Just wanted to know what I should do in the future to stop it from happening again as I dont want to have to confront her about it again. We do have a good friendship and it would be a shame to ruin it. I hate confrontation but I dont think I can compromise on this issue.

I will probably get shouted down for this, and probably rightly so, but for the sake of your friendship, would it be possible that you busy yourself elsewhere when she is going to change the baby? How old is the child? She might not be in nappies for much longer anyway, and if you see her, say, monthly, it might only be an issue for the next few visits. However, you will then have the problem of where the child uses the potty (hopefully not on your sofa!).
