Showering

What do you do with LO when you shower? I wait til DH comes home on his lunch break, but won't always be able to do that.

Re: Showering

  • I shower during one of his naps.  For a while I was putting him in his bouncer in the bathroom while I showered.  Now he just naps on his Boppy on my bed while I shower.  I haven't had an issue yet of him waking up and needing me or anything.

  • I wait until she's napping in the Rock and Play, then push her into the bathroom.  She likes the sound of the water.  She's started to cry a couple of times, and I have to just let her cry till I get out.

  • I put her in her bouncer in the bathroom. She likes the sound of the water and the fan.
  • Most of the time I shower during a nap.  if he's awake and I don't have another pair of hands, I've put him in the FP lamb bouncer and put it in the bathroom with me.

  • Bouncer in the bathroom, either asleep or awake.

  • I put him in his bouncer in the bathroom. He likes the noise of the shower :)

  • Before I went back to work, I'd just shower when he was napping.  Now that i'm back at work, I take my shower at night and either DH has him, or he is already down for the night.  I love my shower time!

  • I either put LO in her bouncy seat in the bathroom with me, sometimes awake sometimes asleep. I've also put her in her PnP or swing to nap and then showered while she,s sleeping.

  • We have a bathroom attached to our bedroom so I put DS down in his bassinet to take a nap while I'm in the shower, and keep the bathroom door open so I can hear him when he cries. Usually he doesn't, though-- like others have said, I think he likes the sound of the water.

  • I used to wait until DH got home at night...now that LO is 9 weeks, it's getting easier to have time to do things and let him play in his bouncer or in the middle of the bed when I go take a quick shower

  • I have always been a night shower person- I like going to bed feeling clean, so its always been a non-issue for me. DH is always home when I shower.

  • I shower at night so after Caleb has had this last feeding for the night and is put in the bassinet, I take a shower and pump one last time before I hit the sack.

  • I shower when Dillyn is in his rock-n-play. He is either sleeping or awake and content when I go. I just leave him in the living room. We have a small bathroom so I can't really fit him in there.

  • I shower before DH goes to work.  If that's not possible, I wait until DD2 is napping then bring baby into the bathroom in her bouncy seat.

  • If she sleeps long enough in the AM then I will try and catch one then. Most of the time I just put her in her bouncy seat in the middle of the bathroom. She likes the rumble of the old exhaust fan and the sound of the running water. Then when I'm done I just pick up the bouncy seat and bring it the bedroom while I get dressed.
