I got a bath!

DH put a bathroom in our upstairs and is remodeling the downstairs bathroom. I just got a bath for the first time since I lived with my parents (5 yrs ago). It was amazing! I think I'll boycott showers for awhile.
What do you ladies prefer? Bath or shower?

Re: I got a bath!

  • I love baths!

  • Baths, hands down. But we don't have a tub at our house. Single DH bought a house without a tub. It was almost a deal breaker. I'm super jealous.
  • I'm a shower girl! I do love some yummy smelling bath salts or bath bombs but I use those about every 5 years.

    Yep, this. If I take a bath, I usually take a short shower first because I can't stand washing my hair in a bath, baths are only good in soap-free water!

  • I haven't taken a bath in a million years. I got bored in them but I would give anything to waste time in a quiet tub lol

    This 'cept if I take a bath, I have to take a shower after.
  • I like to take a bath before I shower but of course I don't have time for that anymore so shower it is.
  • On the weekends I like to drink my morning coffee while taking a bath. And probably reading too. I started doing this on maternity leave... We have a small apartment and in the bath with my head underwater is the quietest place in our apartment... Can't hear Ros fuss! I mentioned drinking coffee in the bath to a friend during my girls weekend and she was like THAT IS THE BEST IDEA EVER IM DOING THAT. She tried it and agrees that its a winner.
    I usually hate baths because A) It's not deep enough so there's never enough water to cover all of me B) the exposed skin gets too cold when not in the water and C) I never have time! Quick showers are my norm.

    I might have to give them another chance. With coffee.
  • Love the pic!! :) I prefer showers. When we remodel out upstairs bathroom we're putting in a smaller tub. The one that's in there now is too big to enjoy, but I'm sure Haddock would love to swim in it one day, lol.
  • Baths when I just want to soak and relax. Showers if I need cleaned.

  • Awesome! I wish I fit in my tub. I'm too tall. I think I need a hot tub instead.

    Such a cute pic of Ty! I prefer showers bc I get cold in baths. And bored. But I'm a weirdo who gets overly fidgety and bored at manicures and pedicures.

  • We just got a new toilet a couple of months ago. I wish I would have thought of that! This picture is awesome! I don't really like baths that much but I love it when the boys take their baths! It is so cute.
  • @Asbromle‌ I could have guessed your answer would be shower... Since you are always bumping from the shower! :)
  • fabkfabk member
    I shower. When we moved and our new house had a bath I was pretty excited. Ihave yet to use it for myself though. Maybe one day I will take a bath.
  • @dliz87 haha, just think of how much bumping I could do from a bath tub.  Maybe I should try that.
