I imagine I will get some differing views but wonder if I am being completely unreasonable. I wash DS (6 months) 3 times a week and have done since he was newborn - the days can be moved around to suit a special day out or the inevitable poonami that wetwipes just will not handle. He is topped and tailed every day in any event. I recently went to a party (babies/children invited) and the host offered use of her bath for DS. I declined saying I had bathed him this morning and he was fine now for a couple of days. She was and I felt I had to explain myself. I said that I had experience via my cousins children that too much washing can be bad for LO's skin and I may? have read this somewhere. She was of the opinion that babies should be bathed every day as part of their night-time routine. Should I bathe him more regularly? He has at least 2 changes of clothes per day but I now feel like I have a dirty child
Sometimes I only wash his hair once/twice a week.
