Bumbo in the shower

Has anyone done this before? I found this idea on pinterest yesterday and decided to try it, flame if you must, but it was awesome. I know a lot of you shower with your babies but I never did because I couldn't figure out how to juggle me and the baby. Using the Bumbo made it so easy. I just put her in it when I needed to soap up and DD loved it!
FYI I would never use the Bumbo in the tub, shower only because it can't float away.

  • hmmm...interesting! I've never thought of that and like you said, the bumbo floats so that wouldn't work. I may have to try it because Cooper is no longer a fan of his ducky tub lately. Nothing is good enough for him right now.

  • Not flameworthy IMO. But someone posted the other day about you shouldn't use the bumbo in the tub because it can collect mold by getting wet all the time. Just something to consider...I had never thought about it before it was posted! FWIW, I only s

  • It's a good idea though - that's actually why I Googled it! They have a hard plastic bathtub seat that they sit in almost the same way. Maybe give that a try.

  • Jealous of you ladies who get shower "me time." lol...I'm always rushing through mine.  

    I now get in the BATH with S, though, to bathe him.  He outgrew his tub and just isn't stable enough to sit in the bathtub without me in ther

  • DD's bath time is a family event. DH typically will get in the tub with DD and I will assist with the cleaning from outside the tub. Occassionally I get in with her and he will help from the outside but he really enjoys giving her the bath. He wears a

  • I think it's a great idea! It would absolutely never work for us, Bebs come to expect toys when water is running she would spend the entire time trying to free herself in the name of a foam penguin.

  • Hmm, never thought about using a seat in the shower. FWIW, I give DS1 a shower, he gets out and DH gets him in his pjs, I'm showering while DH and DS1 are busy, and then once I'm done DH hands me DS2 so I don't have to worry about washing myself and holdi

     He wears a "pee cover" tucked wash cloth because he thinks it's weird not to.
