Beach
Has anyone taken their baby to the beach yet? How old were they? My baby boy is 2 months and my dad has a beach condo so we wouldn't be stuck on the beach all day..we could go down for a few minutes at a time and go back in but I'm still nervous. Is he allowed to wear sunscreen? I've read mixed things. Some things say not till 6 months some say they can..



I almost took my 9 week old a few days ago, but decided against it at the very last minute. Left him home with Daddy while i took a break and spent the afternoon at the beach with our 2.5 yr old instead.
Planning on going again in a few weeks, this time with baby in tow. Will be doing what pp mentioned, rash guard, sun hat, and hanging out in the shade ( we have a large uv protective beach umbrella).
We took a day trip to the beach last week and Jack slept most of the day in a beach tent with UV protection. We're going to the beach for a week next week and I think he'll be fine. I do want to ask the pediatrician about sunscreen. I used it on my daughter at 4 months last summer
