Bathing a 14 week old

Hello!

This is becoming an issue for us.

Our boy is 14 weeks old and now too big for his baby bath tub but seemingly too small for the big bath!

We've bought an Angelcare bath support for the big bath but I think it's useless; it forces his arms too close to his body, so the only thing you can actually wash is his tummy and face!

Can anyone recommend the best way to bathe a baby who needs support to sit up etc?

Thanks.

Have a full size bath with him?

Get in with him. Shower may be easier than bath.

Support him with one of your arms? The way people did for years before there were gadgets to do it!
