First world problem I know, but how do you shower with a toddler (2.5 years) and a baby? Baby is 5 weeks old so doesn't sleep for long at a time yet, and toddler still wakes frequently. Showering before they both wake isn't really an option, because either it might be 2am when I get a slot long enough, or I'll lose sleep doing so which I can't afford to do when I've got all day alone with them both (and the baby spends most of the night refusing to go in the cot but that's another thread!).
I did think I could put baby in bouncy chair in bathroom and let the toddler play, but the baby currently hates the chair!
How do other people manage to shower? Particularly those with poor sleepers! Or do I just accept I can't until my oh gets home later that evening? And that it will all get easier with time as they get older...
