How would you recommend bathing a baby? In the sink? Holding in the tub? In their own little bath? One of those seat thingys they sit in in the bath?

It's the only thing left to buy on our list! Thank you very much

I have a bath seat it makes it a bit easier means I have two free hands

Depending on your birth. I had a bad c section and would not have managed bathing in our bath so used a baby bath on the kitchen bench.

We've had the reclining seats for both of ours. As pp said it's great as you don't need to hold the baby which is much better for my back.

A couple of friends have snuggle baths which they rave about

We have a shnuggle bath and it's fab. DD loves it, they are well supported so we can really interact and play with her.

The Shnuggle bath is brilliant. Barely ever had to support him in it and he absolutely loves being in the bath, has never complained once.

We have a snuggle too and it's great! I did find my dd was bit lost in it at first so I brought her into a shallow bath with me and laid her on my legs. Since about 4 weeks though the snuggle has been fab - she loves it!

In the Belfast Sink while she was tiny, now use an Angelcare seat in the bath. Once she's sitting confidently, we'll go back to the sink for washing but the big bath a couple of times a week for splashing/playing
