My fiance and I were thinking about going for a swim and we aren't sure if its ok to dip our baby boy in the water a little to introduce him to the pool. At what age have you all introduced your babies to the pool?

  • Our pediatrian said right away was ok. We put our baby in at almost 7 weeks and she loved it, she actually fell asleep with her feet in!
  • My baby is 18 days old and as much as I would like to take her swimming with us and my 5year old I just can't imagine putting her new skin in chlorine. I waited until my son was 3 months before introducing him to the pool.
