The only cabin where I’ve changed outside of that bathroom is EK new F.

Bathroom for me, although I saw someone yesterday strip
off in the middle of a non-Qsuite 777 cabin. Thankfully he didn’t appear to be going commando.

Def. change in the bathroom. Easier for everyone.
As for why you can’t check-in, do you have a non-Qatar flight before your Q-Suite leg? I had that issue (I flew AS to LAX for my flight to BOM), and as a result, wasn’t able to check-in until I was at the airport. There wasn’t anyone at the gate yet, so they checked me in at the lounge.
On the return (which was Qatar from BOM to DOH and DOH to LAX), I think I was able to check-in online, but I may still have been forced to do it at the airport, I can’t remember. May was a long time ago. Lol.

Keep in mind that it’s easy enough to change back into your normal clothes while in Qsuites before landing because your door is still closed.

I have to join withall the previous etiquette experts. The etiquette is pyjamas in Bathroom - for the cabin crew's sake if not fellow pax.
Q suites and similar are simply not enough to keep you sufficiently private.
Depending on the airline and the timing of pyjama distribution - there are variations....
I'm very much the change before takeoff type - if not yet distributed I'll ask

Yes. I tend to do just that too. And have the seat made up before takeoff if possible so I can sleep when I want.
Thankfully all checked in. My BA connection to ARN is about to leave on time-ish. Looking like everything is going to be stress free.
