how many baths/wk do you give your LO?

PatsGirl81 · August 2009

We do every other day. DD loves it so wondering if we should do every day at this point. Haven't decided yet.

I try to give him one every night, but sometimes if we're all really busy I just skip that day and do one the next day. On average I probably give S 5 baths a week.

It's so dry here, we try to bathe her as little as possible, so we give her a bath as needed, which ranges from every day to every 4 days.

2-3. If she get exceptionally dirty for some reason I will do it more often but she does not go to daycare and we spent most of the time in the house these days. I did it every day for the longest time and the Pedi told me I was going to dry her out!

He gets a bath everynight as this is part of his bed time routine. However I soap him up every other night as I know he isn't dirty. He just loves water and plays with his toys!

We bathe her almost nightly now - she crawling & it's been so hot - if you can fit it in make it part of the night time routine. It can act as a signal for bedtime (we are working on this so hopefully she'll know after bath comes bottle then bed).

we do M,W,F and also if he got really sweaty during hte dayor we went to the beach and put otion on him. I might start to do baths more often this winter since he'll be getting into more stuff and might be dirtier. DS loves his bath time.

Usually every other day unless she gets really dirty.

2-3. He has eczema and the baths kill his skin! That is harder now that he is mobile, sweaty, eating tons of messy things, etc.

Everyday unless we are out late and she falls asleep in the car on the way home which happens rarely.

This!

EcoBaby · August 2009

I prefer to skip 2 days, but he's been getting dirty lately - crawling on the floor, swimming, eating messy foods - so we sometimes give a bath or shower everyday, but I will only use soap every other day.

Every other day.

KathrynMD · August 2009

Try for every other day; but we've been known to go 3 or 4 days if there's a lot going on or she gets really tired.

NewBlue · August 2009

We do it every night. Even though he plays while in there I do think it calms him down. In the winter we may do every other night so his skin doesn't get too dry.

He gets a bath every other night. Recently though he's been loving the mesh feeder and it's so meesy that it's been more like every night.

SportyChic24 · August 2009

DD gets about 3 to 4 a week, she is finally starting to have fun taking baths!

kellymsparks · August 2009

We do everyday unless it's an off/late day. DS gets so sweaty, and stuff is stuck under his chins all the time! Big Smile

Quiksilver620 · August 2009

we still do them every other day

MrsEmm · August 2009

we do one every nite before bedtime - she loves bathtime & it helps her unwind. Plus shes always such a mess by the end of the day anywasys

disbride061103 · August 2009

We do a bath every night. DS loves it and gets really excited for bath time.

goeckie · August 2009

We used to do it 3 x a week but now that he's crawling everywhere he's getting so dirty so we are upping it to 5 days a week. It's part of his bedtime routine now. I only actually wash him with soap the original 3 x a week. The other days he just plays with his toys and splashes around.

peapine · August 2009

everynight unless we are out for a special reason and she is too tired (past her bedtime) or she is sick. in the winter, it will prob be every other night. she goes to daycare and she is sweaty and gross from being outside and just that daycare smell. i couldnt do every other day.

HisBride05 · August 2009

We give D a bath nightly since it's part of our night-time routine. If we are out to dinner/away from home and getting home late, she'll skip but that is hardly ever since I know it helps her prepare for bed.
