What To Do When LO Is Too Big For Their Tub?

CaliforniaSunshine · September 2010

I'm just wondering what I am suppose to do now that Ella is pretty darn close to being too long for her bath tub. If your LO outgrew their tub, how are you bathing them?

Im going to buy the sling that they can lay on in the big tub....though she might be a bit long for this as well?

I might also just start bathing her in the sink..

No need to bathe your kids. Just let her shake the dirt off.

You can lay her down in the bathtub in about an inch of water, or buy her a bath seat.

We switched to Eurotub by Primo and we love it! It's $25 at BBB. It changed bath time from something we dreaded to an exciting time. DD loves to spash in her new tub! And I don't have to support her the entire time because she stays in the right place even with all the splashing.

We have a Summer Infant Baby Bather seat. We put it in the bath tub and fill the tub up. Works great. We have the one with the ducks and bubbles on it.

I know they have a few models... the ones with the head support look to me like they would only work for shorter LOs. Ours does not have the head support and we have had no issues with it. HTH.

I'm trying to avoid bathing her in the sink. She is not sitting unassisted very well yet and she has Torticollis, so it would be a pain in the a$$ to do in the sink.

We use this bath mat thing I got at target. It was about 10 bucks, and is made by Munchkin. It looks like a big sponge. You just lay it in the tub, and lay LO on it. It takes a keen sense of water-management to make sure you keep the water level at an ok level, but other than that, we've loved it. And once DD can sit up, you can sit them on it, as well.

I just lie DS in the big tub in a couple inches of water. I have a sponge to put his head on if I need it, but it can be done without.

I find it easiest to just get in the tub with him. Although after last night when he pooped in there I think I'll start wearing my bathing suit.

nestinginjapan · September 2010

get a bigger one! jk. but really, we have 2 sizes - one that fits in the sink (that he's close to outgrowing), and another that you put on the ground (that will probably work until he's like 2).

This. No poop for us yet though. Smile
