how often do you bath your kids?

[hatstand]

sometimes we kind of forget and then we're out or something, then it's the weekend then it's suddenly a week since their last bath. is that bad?

ds is 18 motnhs and has one every night

erm, every day - can you imagine not bathing small boys every day - oh the horror, the horror

i try to bath her every other night but if we dont get back till late the last thing she wants is to be fussed arouns with, she jus wants to sleep

every other day but she has gone a week several times

come on. there must be more lax mums out there. i survived on one a week, never did me any harm mumble mumble

ah they're just not admitting it hatty

sorry but ds's would stink if they didnt have one at least every other day.
usually every day

Every other night. Slightly less in the holidays. Or when they smell/are covered in mud or paint.
I only use soap once a week though and I only wash their hair once a week.

Every other day suits my liitle demon just fine but he does get stripped down every night and washed down with the flannel coz he comes back from nursery with paint halfway up his arma every day!

Every night unless he's not well. DH does it though - if twas left to me would be less There, that lax enough for you?

DS is 17mo.

ds's are nearly 5 and 7. Birthday next week!
They dont seem to be able to get through the day wothout grubby knees, dirty finger nails and general boy sweat. Bllleeuurrghh

5 & 6 and could get unrecognisably filthy standing stock still in an unfurnished, sterile, whitewashed room!

baba who is 11 months have twice a week as one at home and one at the baths when we finished swimming... otherwise if she have a bad nappy rash or very soiled nappy, ill bath her before she goes to bed

DD is 3.5yo now and has a bath about 3 times a week, washing her hair each time. When she was tiny it was every night, and it has got less with the years. I am much more lax now and have to remind orsilves to do it. Mind you, she does tend to have a shower instead too, which is easier.

Bath or shower every night except fridays

Every night. its part of his bed time routine.

dd (11m) bath every night
ds (9y) bath at night, shower in the morning

They love bath time so much I would feel mean if they missed it!

Every night (DHs job) whilst I'm on here !

Four and two here and yes it's every night but that is partly because their father is a bit odd about baths/showers. I think he thinks it's morally degenerate not to have them.
