Bath bathing

Hi all,

I’m hoping someone can help me!

My baby is only 2 months old and still quite floppy and not quite there with holding his own head or sitting up by himself so does need constant support

He’s too long for the baby bath now but the big tub is a right faff as he constantly needs to be supported so it’s either a two person job or a bit of a sketchy one person balancing job

Has anyone got any ideas on what I could do?

Thanks!!

We just put a tiny amount of water in the bottom of the big bath and lay them down in it. They loved the freedom of it.

You could try a bath support like this one: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LYSR0AI

I used to get in the bath with mine - it was really lovely except for the time he did a massive poo....

Angelcare bath seat. Total win for bathing!

Less water and lie them down in the big bath. One hand under head for support/ stop them turning head to side. They love kicking their legs and splashing

Another vote for just getting in with them. Smile

I used a little bath seat with an adjustable height bar! He still uses it at 5 months however I'm looking at getting my baby a more practical one now he's sitting up!
