My apartment only has a shower..not a tub and I was wondering how am I suppose to bath him? This may sound like a silly question but I want to know if anyone has any methods that work without much difficulty?? The sinks are also really small too. =/

Once baby is somewhat mobile, yeah, take him in the shower with you! Your partner can hand him off to you, you soak and suds him, then hand him back out to partner for a towel down. It takes about 3 minutes. Some toddlers love marching around in the "rain" too. No worries! Enjoy your baby!

You can get a plastic flat plug at a hardware store, and fill the bottom of the shower with a few inches of water. This works better as they get a little bigger, but they don't need a lot of water.

At least if you get that one he can use it for quite a while until he is ready to take showers. My baby loves being in the shower with me. ALSO if you don't want a baby tub you can get shower slings that you wear in the shower so that the baby can't slip anywhere. There are a whole bunch of options open to you. Just got to find where to get them. Toys R us is where I got her tub that had the infant and toddler sides

oxoalicia143oxo - 1196 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I would just fill the baby tub with water and sit it on the counter tops with a towel underneath. He should fit in that for awhile.

vickiessecret - 1196 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Well did you get a baby bath tub?? I'd fill that up and either put it on the table or somewhere, that there's no draft, you can't actually give them a bath until their umbilical cord falls off, you have to sponge bathe them. My daughter is almost 8 weeks old, she hates baths, but she loves the shower...lol She actually showers with me and my husband.
