My son normally loves bath time but has all of a sudden started hating it over the past few days. He clung on to me yesterday when I was putting him in and just would not sit down, he was very distressed. It was definitely not too hot, I am always very careful and err on the side of caution.
It's gradually been getting harder to bath him anyway as he wants to walk around the edge of the bath and attempt to climb out all I can think is he has had a couple of issues- one when he took his visor off when I was rinsing his hair and hot upset, another when he swallowed some water when he was crawling and dunked his head. He was upset, but on both occasions I took him out and cuddled him before continuing with the bath with no more problems.
Does anybody know what it could be? He normally loves his bath, spends half his time happily playing and the other half standing up, throwing toys overboard, reaching for things etc. Despite having a non slip mat I normally keep hold of him and try to get him to sit in case he falls and yesterday he did slip and bang his ribs on the side when I was trying yo rinse his hair 
. God I sound like mother of the year don't I?
I don't know what has gotten in to him, should I just try topping and tailing for a few days and try again?
