I just used to wash their hair over the bath first, then just put them in that water.

@DustyLee123 for a newborn?

3 months and I haven’t yet. We take him in the shower instead of bathing him. Can’t remember what we did with DD. What are you thinking?

Yes.

They don't need it for ages, their hair just needs warm water too

Just water and a flannel for a long time.

When he started nursery I started diluting a bit of baby wash in the bath (Aveeno emollient with oats).
