Rec your transitioning baby bathtub

We're looking for a good transitioning baby tub since B way too big for his infant one. Anyone used a tub for transitioning between the infant tub and reg bathtub or did you just go straight to the big tub? Which ones do you have and liked (or didn't like--so I know which ones to avoid)? I was considering an inflatable one so we could use it when traveling too but I'm unsure how long it would last us since inflatables tend to get small holes or seam splits and leak. TIA!

    We started using the Euro bath around 4 months and it's awesome. It helps support LO so you can have your hands somewhat free and is still spacious enough to fill with water and some toys. Can't travel with it, though, since it's pretty big!

    we've used the eurobath since she was born... it has both an infant side and a "big kid" side where they can sit up if they want to. i got it b/c it was good for both stages. got mine for $10 at a just between friends sale... and i see them on CL from time to time too! highly recommend it.

    as far as using the regular tub - we have done that while traveling to see the grandparents and it's a lot harder i think, just b/c i feel like if she leans back in the eurobath she just slides into the "wall" of the tub but if she leans back in the regular tub she could bonk her head pretty good.

    We went from the infant tub to an inflatable sung-tub. What I like about it is that we don't have to fill the whole tub to use it, so you waste less water. She loves it. We leave it inflated all time, in the bathroom. 

    This is the one we have. Got it b/c she likes ducks. Now I say to her, "Where's the duck? Show me the ducks." And she points at each duck on the tub and says, "Duck! Duck! Duck! Duck!"

    There are other inflatable tubs from One Step Ahead and Safety 1st, all seem the same.

    My friend has the Bath Ring and likes it. My MIL has the bath ring and we use it at her house. The downside is that you have to fill the whole tub and it limits their movement. Harder to clean their bottoms!

    We went from the infant tub straight to the tub. I worried about it at first but Bella LOVES it! She loves all of the toys floating around and trying to find the ones she wants. I was going to get the inflatable one like Malia has but several friends didn't like it so we didn't even try it.

    Hahaha, that's SO cute!

    I think we'll get one of the inflatable tubs from Amazon and see how it goes. At least there is free returns for a year. And if it leaks, we'll prolly go for the eurobath next. Thanks for all your suggestions, ladies!
