Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Do you wait for you LO to nap before you shower?

Just curious! My LO doesn't really just "chill" while I shower- he tends to fuss!

Re: Do you wait for you LO to nap before you shower?

  • I take my shower at night when my husband is home.

  • Yup. I wait until he is asleep and I bring the monitor in the bathroom with me. If I'm out of the shower but he wakes before I've had time to do my hair I get him and put him the bouncy seat outside the door (with the door open) while I finish getting ready.
  • I either wait for him to nap or to be engrossed in his activity mat.  Now that he is trying to crawl and disinterested in his activity mat, I wait for a nap.
  • I usually wait until the evening when my bf is home, but if I have to get ready to do something I feed and change her and she just chills out in her bouncy.  It really depends on her mood, though.   If she's already fussy, then I wait until she's calm down to hop in.

  • I have a little chair thing and I bring her in the shower with me on the weekends. During the week I get up before her to shower and get ready for work before I have to get her up and ready.

    Side Note: My baby is awesome and sleeps from 8pm to 6am so it is easy to work around her.

  • I have to wait for a nap now because DD rolls all over the place.  It takes her less than 5 seconds to get all the way across the floor.  LOL 
  • I typically bring her in the bathroom with me and she hangs out in her rocking chair and plays with the toybar while I shower (quickly!)
  • At 3 months I used his travel swing and brought it in the bathroom with me.  Now he goes in his Jumperoo right outside the bathroom (door open) or I wait until he's napping.
  • No after her 8am feeding I burp her then while I wash bottles she does tummy time with her mirror... then I grab the bouncy seat and we go in to the bathroom I shower... by then shes tired and I put her in her crib and finish drying my hair... :)
  • Nope...I'll put her in her bounce chair in the bathroom while I shower.  She will stay entertained long enough from me to do that, especially when I sing to her from in there!

  • I shower/bathe at night before we go to sleep so DH can hold him.

  • I try to wait until he naps but it always seems like the second I get in he wakes up so it usually fails.
