how often do you launder LOs bath things?

Do you reuse washcloths between baths, or launder after every bath?

What about bath towels?

And the tub itself-- how often do you clean that (beyond just rinsing it)?

Re: how often do you launder LOs bath things?

  • I wash towels and cloths after every bath because I'm a clean freak like that.  We use a sling seat thing in the tub and it has a mesh cover.  I wash it about once/week.

  • LO has like 15 wash clothes, I use them twice and throw them in the hamper. 

    We have 4 bath towels, I use for 3-4 times then throw them in the hamper.

    I started putting LO in our tub with about 2 inches of water in it. I clean our tub about once a week. I got tired of washing the cover for the seat. Andplusalso, LO got to long for his tub. He likes to stretch his legs in the tub and his own tub wasn't cutting it anymore.

    Good idea.  I'm trying this.  I'm so tired of that bath sling thing.  I just end up adjusting him 45 times during our 8 minute baths because he's a squirmy little thing! 

  • I wash towels and washcloths after every bath. I just rinse the infant tub and let it drip dry after every use. When we used the infant sling with it, I washed that once a week.

  • I wash his towels and washcloths after each use. We have tons of each. I don't do much to wash the tub beyond rinsing it and propping it up to dry. I was the sling every 5 uses or so.

    It's so much more easier and I just sit on the side of the tub and watch him play with his toys. I use the time to shave my legs or soak my feet for an at-home pedicure. I do refill the tub a couple of times because he gets fussy if his bath time gets cut short. LOL. (He gets that from me)

  • We wash his washcloths and towels every time. DH was trying to get me to do towels after two baths for a while, but I always end up with boogies or spit up or something gross on them by the time we are done. I just wash them everytime.

    As for the tub, we just switched from infant tub to the regular bath tub last night. We were just rinsing the tub and flipping it upside down to dry. Hadn't really used the sling part in a while. I think the regular tub will be easier once we get used to it, but for now, we are having a hard time getting to his parts on the front... and washing his hair. I just don't want to get the soap in his eyes. We will get better, I'm sure!

  • We also switched to regular tub. He sits on a hand towel, I don't wash that every time. But his bath towel and washcloths get washed each use.
