Poo in the bath

[tessandtwins]

My 6 month old boy has taken to having a poo in the bath every single night. The first few times I took him out, cleaned up and ran a new bath. The last 2 nights I just took him out and didn't run a new bath. Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on stopping it would be appreciated! Thanks.

yes v normal

get a sieve

boys are like dogs

can you delay bathtime till you know he's had his pre bed poo?

yes?

nothing i was just agreeing with your name

get one of those little fishing nets from pets at home! Very useful!!! They are about 99p!

I see [smites own forehead for being numptyish]

I second the sieve. When you have 2 or 3 in there (children not poo!) you find you no longer care. Just scoop and wash.

if he can sit on his own, have you tried sitting him on a potty for a few minutes before bath time....?? it worked for my DS (now 14mths but started on potty at 7 months) who now has a poo most nights just before his bath!

If you have one, tell your OH to get a seive as it'll be good practice if you decide to go for a waterbirth in any future pregnancies.

That's what I did!
