Infant tub to big tub

  My baby is 5 months now and I still do her in the infant tub. It is small for her but is so much easier than the big tub. Especially because we use it every night as a bedtime routine. Will probably have to make the transition soon though.

  We're still in the infant tub. How do you/did you keep her sitting up for the bath?

  I use the infant tub in the bathtub. It gives LO the support she needs without using all of my arm strength to hold her up. She's too tall for the infant tub so the extra splashes of water just go down the drain instead of on our counter.

  I never bought the tub, I used the sink and now I put him in the shower with me. You aren't crazy, just do what you're comfortable with

  We use the big tub -- I have a sponge shaped bear and he lays on that In the tub and I wash him. I just help him sit up to do his back.

  They get bathed individually in the big tub laying on a towel in an inch of water.

  I got frustrated with the baby tub around 4 weeks and have been using the big tub ever since.

  I also get in the tub with LO and bathe her.  When she's done, DH is waiting with her towel to dry her off and dress her for bed.  This works well for us, and the bathroom doesn't look like a tidal wave hit when we're done.

  We were gifted a Puj bathtub which we used in the sink but LO outgrew it months ago. We were also gifted a whale bathtub from Fisher Price.  We just put the whale tub in the bathtub, it lets him sit up and splash around and feel safe because he's a little scared of the faucet.

  We never used a baby tub, just put her in the big tub from the beginning. We just put only a little bit of water. She loves it!
