bathing ?

diego299 · January 2013

How often are you bathing LO? We are still on the 3 times a week schedule. Obviously if he gets dirty, gets haircut or something else requiring a bath we give him another. He LOVES bathtime so I was wondering if we are past the not bathing daily thing? TIA

We do every other night with the kids. Anything more and my DD gets horribly dry skin. In the summer time we do it according to how dirty they are each night and if we played outside.

You could run a tub with warm water and let him splash around. I feel like with Lo it's the soap and actual washing that dries her skin out.

Brooke gets put in water almost every night, except maybe Saturday. She doesn't always get washed with soap. It's part of her bedtime routine and it works for us.

We do bath every other night, but she only gets a soap scrubbing maybe once a week or if she is dirty. I only wash her hair once a week as well.

This is us except Wednesday nights because we have church. DH does bath time o it's also a nice break for me and N loves it.

DD gets a bath every night (unless I'm out and DH is on his own or we have a babysitter).

She gets pretty messy at daycare and she loves smearing food in her hair. So, it has become part of our nightly bedtime routine.

Same here. Plus, she gets bored being inside all day, so the bath is a fun activity for her to do at night. She loves bath time!

We do a bath everynight, but only use soap a couple times a week.

It's part of the wind down evening routine - his last chance at playing/splashing/coloring before storytime and bedtime.

Only once a week because he has eczema. This is per the Dr's recs. If he absolutely needs a bath in between for some reason then we will give him one of course.

Same here, DS absolutely loves bathtime. He tries to climb in the bath about three times a day.

DD gets a bath (with soap) every night. She has since she was born. She loves it.

This! B gets really bad dry patches on his skin and if we bath everyday this get so bad. Every other day works great for us.

Same with my DD. She has the dryest skin ever so we try to limit the baths to once a week. She HATES baths, though, so it ends up working out well.

Every other day

KrisM86 · January 2013

We do a bath every other night, although I'm thinking of doing one every night (but not using soap every time) because DD loves it so much! We lather her up with lotion after every bath to avoid dry skin issues.

colliebabe · January 2013

DD gets a bath every night, unless we get home too late.

We do soap every other night on her skin, but sometimes I will wash just her hair because it gets greasy easily like mine (oh and she likes to put food in it, so I need to wash that out!)

CMonkey515 · January 2013

We do a bath every night and have since his umbilical stump came off. This winter his skin has been more dry so I only soap him every other day. Other than his hands, and bottom. Those get soaped every bath. I also use lotion every night. DS is a pretty messy eater, and he tends to sweat a lot. I can't imagine washing him any less. He'd get stinky pretty quick.

lkm2006 · January 2013

It amazes me that some kids aren't filthy like my DS at the end of the day. We have to bathe him every single night.

every night w/ soap

stardust317 · January 2013

DD gets a bath every weekday. Weekends depend on how dirty she is, but she stinks when she gets home from daycare.

jonnygurl76 · January 2013

Every other night. This may change once it gets warm out and they play outside.

Nita2603 · January 2013

Roughly every second night. Sometimes every third. Alastair's skin gets so dry otherwise.

June0609 · February 2013

DS gets bath time with soap every night, sometimes more than once a day. If his skin gets dry I put lotion on. He loves bath time so that works for us.
