Hates Baths all of a sudden!

So my LO used to love baths, smile, was so happy. 

 Now all of a sudden for the past month or so he has begun hating baths.  Screams and cries and tries to arch his back and roll out of the the little baby tub.  The water is not too hot.  I sing and talk to him the whole time.  I wash him as quickly as possible.  It's not particularly cold in the bathroom.  I just can't figure out why all of a sudden he went from loving to absolutely hating bath time! 

Kids are weird.

Re: Hates Baths all of a sudden!

  • I don't know why he would suddenly hate the bath but do you cover his tummy with a wash cloth or one of these? My LO hated the baths in the beginning but now that we put one of the tummy towels on her, she loves it.

  • I usually put a washcloth over his privates so he does not pee on me.  I have put a washcloth over his tummy too.  I can't figure it out either!

  • While  my DS still likes baths, I do notice him getting more active in the tub.  He does fuss while he tries to get comfy.  Does your son fit comfortably in his tub? I don't know how long these things last, but I do know friends who've had to get a bigger tub since their 4 month old was too big for it.  

    I really can't think of any reason why he'd all of the sudden hate baths. Kids are weird!
