Baths - How often?

I know this has been asked before, but how often do you give your LO a bath?  We give Charlie one every other day, but I was wondering if we will need to increase that.

Re: Baths - How often?

  • Margaux gets a bath every night, but it only involves soap/shampoo when she needs it, maybe every third day?  We use it as part of her bedtime ritual.

  • Everyday.  In the morning.  Soap, shampoo, the whole shebang.
  • We do every other day--or twice weekly--since Aaron has really dry skin.

  • A couple times a week, unless we have any messes. I learned a very valuable lesson last week-Exersaucers and poopy diapers don't mix!!!  Randy pooped while in his Exersaucer and there is no diaper in the world that could've hold that mess!!!

    Every other day unless he gets really mucky.
  • Every other day unless we get dirty at the park, etc.   Charles' skin gets really dried out if he bathes every day.

  • Approx three times a week. She tends to get dry skin so I don't want to bathe her too much.

    Pretty much this. Baby SugarChick gets a bath every night as part of her bedtime routine. We use soap & shampoo every other day. She gets a rubdown with lotion every night after her bath.

  • Full on bath three times a week.  Plunked in the sink or a quick shower with mom or dad at the end of the day as needed, but usually just to rinse off a messy dinner etc.
  • We do them every night as part of our bedtime routine. With it being summer time and with LO getting sunscreen put on everyday I like to at least get her rinsed off.  I'll only wash her hair every other day or every third day.  Also we only use soap every other day unless it is really needed.  We go through a lot of lotion in our house too - it is just so dry here.

    Twice a week unless needed more often.  I used to do every night with DD but now DS came it's a little harder to do that and made his eczema flare up so we cut down on frequency.

  • Everyother night a full bath and on the off night he gets wiped down.  Unless he is really fithly from daycare and then it is every night.

  • Full bath every night.  She is usually outside for a good portion of the day so she is usually filthy....  My DH does bathtime with her everynight as part of our routine.  Her skin is very sensitive, so if we skip her bath, she usually gets a little 'rash' or 'breaks out'.  The Aveeno baby soap/shampoo seems to settle her skin down just the right amount so it doesn't get dry - we love it!!

  • DD gets a bath everyother day or twice a week, unless needed more often due to being outside more or sunscreen. On off days she gets wiped off.

    We do baths every 3rd day, and more often as needed.  More often in the summer, with no lotion after, and less frequently in the winter, with LOTS of lotion.
