AIBU to get rid of bath from bathroom?

My bathroom is tiny and badly in need of an update...before DS arrived we had planned a new suite and replace the current bath and shower combo with a large shower. Neither DP or I like baths so this made sense pre baby, as it was never used and a pain to clean.

DS is 3 months so still in baby bath for a while, but would we be daft to take the bath out now??

I know it will be possible, but want to hear experiences of those with older DC and whether its worth it/advisable...

So -
YABU- it's not worth it/pain in the backside/will put future buyers off of our family home in future sale?

YANBU - its worth the extra space/baths are useless wastes of water/its easy enough to get a baby used to showers etc..

Help and advice appreciated before we spend £££ one way or another Confused

Don't get rid of a bath. My DS is older now and needs a soak after football/rugby/scout camps!

Our children bathe each night, it’s a great for their bedtime routine. When younger, they have bath toys in there too.

Not such good fun in a shower really

I only have about 4 baths a year but wouldn’t buy a house with no bath. Fur resale alone, I wouldn’t remove it.
