Used to bathe every 3 days but I have been showering with him he loves it and is so calm. He has no sensitive skin issues so it's been daily. He has my greasy Italian skin so he needs it lol
We started out doing only 1 bath per week, but LO loves baths so much, we've been bathing him every other day for the past week, and he sleeps a lot better after having one.

i told my husband tonight that her hair smells like adult spit from all our kisses, and she NEEDS a bath tomorrow
she's not a baby who spits up, and the small amount she might do on occasion just dribbles down her chin and is quickly cleaned up. no caked nasty stinky mess in the folds of her neck.
kiddo was an urpy baby and he got a bath most nights. then again, we also were blissfully unencumbered by our single-child-parenthood at that point, so leisurely daily baths were no big deal. now - it's a miracle that we all make it to bed. bath time is shockingly low in our hierarchy of needs
I think baths are such a hassle, yet I'm giving them every day for three reasons. 1 - she seems to enjoy the warm water and rubdown (although she hates it when I wash her head) 2 - she has reflux, so there's stinky milk/lint/sweat paste in her neck by the end of the day. 3 - she sleeps longer after a bath. That last reason is definitely the most motivating.
