Bath time

jessicaerle

Hi! I've been using the "first years" little blue bathtub with the sling but my LO hates it now...he wiggles everywhere and it seems like the bars at the bottom dig into back...I've tried it without the sling and that's even more unmanageable.

Which infant tub do you recommend? Is anyone using the bathtub chair? I need ideas on how to make bathtime enjoyable for him!

Now that my LO can sit up, we use the Munchkin Inflatable Duck Tub and she loves it. The walls are soft so she's comfortable in it. My favorite thing about it is that it's pretty compact when deflated so we can take it with us when we travel. She also loves her Eric Carle Bath Squirt Toys, which are the perfect size for her little hands.

We have the summer infant right height, i have the older style that came with a sling for when LO was much smaller. I like the fact that it comes with a stool that LO can use when he is older but it is pretty bulky.

We use the first years too. Though we stopped using the sling a few months back. We haven't had any trouble with it. We actually used the toddler side last night. Is he sitting up supported? When my LO gets a little bigger I was thinking about using the laundry basket idea.

I really want to say that I didn't know about Eric Carle bath toys. I love his art style and am definitely going to look into the bath toys.

My LO has this tub, I recommend it, no complaints so far

I've used the chair since about 4 weeks but my LO loves the bath so much he's been bathing with us for the last couple of months without anything. he loves it. occasionally he'll even take a nap on me in the bath because he loves it so much!

We have the Eric Carle toys too and LO loves them! Caterpillar is her favorite. We still have her in a whale tub, but I think she will need something new in the next month or so

We have the whale tub too! (Got it off Craigslist for $3!) my baby is SUPER splashy in the tub so we put her in the whale in the real tub. I was bathing her on the counter but she was getting water all over the wall.
