So I'm nervous about bathing baby.. anyone else bathed with little one on their chest... I'd rather do it that way than…

I bathed my little girl from 2 weeks and I'm still doing it the same way, but from 6w I added Baby Bath Time. I tried sitting in once but it was awkward trying to hold and wash at the same time, spesh getting in them skin creases. So I stuck to this baby bath thing (5 quid at Tesco!). She loves her bath time Lol xx

@winterbaby95 hahaha! My boy looked like he was covered in cake mix!! 😂😂😂 his cord fell off when he was 4 days old xxx

I used this fisher price bath with McKenzie and Ashton it's a lay seat thing you lay them in and I find it soooo easy! Have a look online beaut xx

@nicolemariehooperxo 3 weeks old lol :) I only washed her hair before that as it was covered in blood... only with water....But i didnt give her a bath until her cord fell off and healed further :) Maya was covered in vernix which is great for the skin so another reason i didnt bath her :) when she was born...she was literally white...looked like she had been dunked in cheese lol 😂😂 Loads of vernix xx

Cotton wall warm water head to toe wash for the first few weeks then used wash soap from 6weeks onwards once the skin shedding was over xx

I used a bath seat for both of mine I couldn’t hold mine and bath them x

@nicolemariehooperxo Olivia has from a few days old, in the hospital they put some Johnson's in her bath xx

@nicolemariehooperxo i washed kj at 2 weeks coz her cord was on for 2 weeks bbe but once the cord as falling off you can bath them wen ever your ready bbe xxx

@gem_1618 aww, okay that's understandable! I've been debating whether too or not as the midwifes said not to use products for a month! X

@vixster I've been flanneling and cotton wool balling him, his cord fell off when he was 4 days old.. I wasn't brave enough then 🙈 do you use Johnsons?

Jaxon was 10 weeks prem and we didn’t get to take him home for 4 weeks, so around then. Then with Willow probably 2 weeks, she was 6 weeks prem xx

I found it easier if I filled up the tub a little bit up to half my thighs and I had baby on my legs while they were closed and stretched out so he was kind of in the water and kind of not gives you two free hands in case your significant other isn't around because I usually bathe my kids during the day when my husband's at work

What age did you wash your newborns? @erincharliebubba @abbyrose @vixster @gem_1618 @winterbaby95 @katietiffanykiara xx

i bath kiara in the sink bbe that way its the right high for me plus shes close to my body as well so she wont drop bbe xxx

@nicolemariehooperxo, I found it harder bathing in the bath with them I’d use bath support xxx

I've got a baby bath with like a rest thing but he's such a little wriggler! 🙈 xxx

I waited until Maya was 3 weeks the bath her :) i got a float seat...put it in the baby bath.. after that though...i just took baths with her x

I found it easier doing it in the sink than the bath but i did use to bath with Olivia, it's nice bonding time x

Maybe invest in a bath seat?

(Obviously a warm bath!)
