Over the winter we would give him a bath every other day... or sometimes every third day if his eczema was flaring up. Now that it's warm (or hot!) again, I give him a shower or bath every day because he is getting sweaty playing outside.
We used to give DS1 a bath every.single.night with almost no exceptions. That went out the window when DS2 came along and got past the newborn stage
Now it is such a circus trying to bathe both of them at the same time! We usually try to do it at least every other night, but sometimes we skip two nights though. I'm sure this will have to change now that summer is coming.

DH is a SAHD, he gives DD a bath everyday, sometimes twice a day. But it's only because she is a maniac. She loves bath time and once it's in her head that she wants a bath she _will_not_shut_up.
Almost every single night for the girls unless DH and I are both out at bedtime and then they sometimes even take one for the sitter. DS is every other night or every third night - whenever he's awake when we're doing the girls' bath, we wash him in there really quickly. It's part of their bedtime routine. Even when the sitter's here, they often ask to take a bath/shower and are much harder to get down without it.
Every night since she was 2 months old, it's crazy to think about how many baths we've given her!!! but it's part of our nighttime routine and she loves it. Sometimes baths are 2 minutes though, when it's been a long day or she's not loving it.
both girls get a bath every night as part of their bedtime routine.
When we just had DD1, DH was in charge of bath/bed time. It was a nice break for me Now we alternate between DDs....but we're starting to give them a bath together more and more often.

Re: Stay at home moms
3-4 times a week. I'm sure it will become daily when we are going to the playground everyday.

Every night.
What, do working moms not bathe their children?
I was thinking the same thing! I rotate my two kids every other night.
DD gets bathed every day. Mostly I give her a bath every other day or so but she sneaks her way into the shower with me almost daily!
DS gets a bath maybe 2-3 times a week. He has bad eczema and stuff so I try not to irritate it.
