Every two to three days, we pop her in, my partner supports under the back of her head whilst I rub her down with the sponge

So far just once or twice a week as his skin is still rather flaky and dry. That and he hates it and screams blue murder. I’ve been top and tailing him every day and rinsing his hair over the sink if he’s sick in it

@Rynara really ? I bought this and was scared to use it cause it doesn’t look sturdy , i ended up throwing it out yesterday lol

@Jody i was too but then i tried it and he seemed like he enjoyed it! Xx

Twice a week or as needed, I have the Nuby bathtub and I use my non dominant hand to support her head while I use my dominant hand to bathe her. I wash her face and hair first before I put her in the bath though so she doesn’t get cold. I find that the bath tub works really well for me because since I gave birth Ive had a really bad back so bending over is unbearable so I clear her changing table and put the bath on there so I don’t have to bend at all. I had my partner or mom around the first few times I did it because it was scary but now I can bathe her on my own :) She has really dry skin so I try not to do too many baths to see if that helps or gets better over time x

Twice a week bath with a top and tail in between if needed. We’re happy with one bath a week though. No soaps, shampoo or lotions/oils. Just water. He looked like a flakey snake for ages but it’s not sore and almost gone now. We use the bath @Rynara posted, great for supporting our chunky baby so our arms don’t ache as much. He hates being naked and always cries so I thought he’d hate a bath, but we put a muslin cloth over him and pour the water on top of that, which he loves 🙌🏻 we just reveal each limb to clean it and cover him back up, like they do at the spa when you get a massage. Highly recommend a wipes warmer you can put flannels in for the top and tailing.
