Hello beautiful mothers. I need some ideas on how you bath when you are home alone with a 15 month old baby. I used to put her in her tub next to me in the bathroom but that doesn't help anymore. Also she naps so early in the afternoon so that time doesn't work for me. Any suggestions?

What do you mean like have a bath yourself?

Either have a shower before she wakes or after she’s gone to bed surely?

Either when he was asleep he had 45 mins nap like clockwork so I ran the bath put him down bathed 35 mins 10 mind get ready

Or cartoons on my phone ( only tried that for few mins when I need a shower and he's up early) and he's up before me.

Or Sat in bimbo with some toys.

At night, when they're asleep.

Unfortunately I have a child who barely sleeps until 11 or 12 mid nite. And that is even with a set routine which starts by 6pm.

I have to put mine in his cot with a few toys. Mostly he screams, but I am in and out in a matter of minutes.

Just pop them in their crib or get a cheap travel cot with some toys and get yourself ready. For me having a shower and getting ready for the day is so important for mental health. Take care of yourself too OP x

I lock the bathroom door and he plays on the floor with his bath toys. I can see him, and talk/sing to him. It's only for a few minutes, then into the bedroom with me while I get dressed etc.

Usually I was up early for work when DS1 was that age and up before him. I used to put DS1 and DS2 in their room and close the baby gate on their door.
