to want to have my DS in the shower with me?

[dolldaggabuzzbuzz]

Each morning DS has a shower with either myself or DH. Dh says it is time he had a shower on his own as he is now 2 years old. I think he is just a baby and we should still be washing him. AIBU?

Have you not heard of tampons or mooncups then?

I washed the conditioner out of DD2's hair in the shower last night (admittedly I was outside the shower, she was in it but ykwim) and she is 8. To say a 2yo should shower alone is, imho, bloody ridiculous

Maybe your DH just wants a shower to himself. I don't think there is anything wrong with it per se, but I wouldn't want mine in with me nor would DH. I enjoy my nice relaxing baths too much on my own!
Mine has her own baby bath still at 20 months and does it in the evening.

Have you not heard of tampons or mooncups then?

No, I would never wear a tampon in the shower no.

I don't think 2 year olds can wash themselves very clean tbh... I wouldn't leave mine in the shower all by himself. My nearly 9 year old DD sometimes showers on her own but she does take a damn long time to do so because she loves it. She wasn't happy with showering on her own until she was about 8 though.

I sit in the bathroom while 2 year old DD showers. She is very happy in there by herself, washing all the playmobile people. If I share with her she is not so happy, and keeps pushing me out of the nice warm water so she can have it all to herself. She is and always has been very very happy in water though.

God I wish mine would shower. We have a huge bath, and it takes forever to fill up (even to the depth you'd expect for a two year old. For me it takes about eleventy billion years). Just getting in the shower with her in the morning would be so, so much more convenient.

DS won't countenance a shower (he wails like a bansjee if water gets on his head or face) and while I love sharing a bath with him, I take up space that could be filled with bath toys. .

DH won't share with the lad any more since an incident last year when he grabbed DH's willy and wouldn't let go.

Up to 5mo we had to share with him otherwise he screamed blue murder every time we washed him and it got to the stage where we were putting off washing him.

Banshee, sorry.

insomnia I think I know which book you mean and it freaked me out too!!!

No I wouldn't wear a tampon in the shower either. I usually have baths anyway and you can't wear them in there or they swell up with soapy water.

Besides, lots of people don't or can't wear them - I know I couldn't for several months after having an episiotomy. And no child should need to wade about in a puddle of their mother's diluted menstrual blood!
