Seen as im ordering my pliko switch footmuff thought id have a look for anything else, so i dont have to pay for 2 lots of delivery cots.
Just came across this, looks really good as theres no worry about you having to hold the baby while bathing him/her. Just wanted opinions really.
Didnt no if it was really good or a load of rubbish

we just bought a support that suckers to the bottom of the bath from asda for like £5

I had a tummy tub as I didn't have room for a bath at mine but I used to put a tiny amount of water in the big bath and lie him in it and support his head when we stayed at his dads.

To me bath supports and baby baths are a waste of space

 

[muppetmummy]

I've always found a lot of mama and papas stuff is overpriced, you're paying for the name more than anything. If you want a baby bath or support you can pick them up for a fiver and they're just as good

 

[daftscotslass]

Yeah tummy tub all the way! We also just used an Ikea baby bath which cost about £3. I always see bath supports in charity shops and boot sales so I think that says a lot about their usefulness

 

[jazzmum2be]

Oh right
I just thought £20 was a good price but then aagin Iv never really had to buy all this stuff before so i dont no whats a good price or not lol

 

[muppetmummy]

MIL picked us up a mothercare babybath and top n tail bowl from a charity shop for £3 and they were like new!
It's one of those purchases you probably won't get much use out of

The tummy tub is great though I think one of the £1 B&Q buckets would do the same job

 

[Bee]

Tummy Tubs rule Ours was well used and will be again but a baby bath/support is something we wouldn't use.

You can get foamy sponge things from boots that are a fiver. My mum bought one for her house but Finlay didn't like it cos he likes to be submerged Something to do with me teaching swimming throughout my pregnancy I think

 

[jazzmum2be]

I talked to my mum about it, and she said I should go for it.
Also as one of my fears about when the babys born is drowing it while bathing him/her.
Silly I no but I think getting a bath with a support like that one will proboly help as I wont have the worry of supporting his/her head while bathing him/her

You can get things like that from places sooooo much cheaper than Mamas and Papas though chick!

 

[daftscotslass]

Yeah definitely! Get a cheapie bath (you could have ours but it's more than it's worth in posting ) and try and get a second hand bath support at something like a car boot. Or freecycle?

we got a fisher price 3 stage bath (simialr to this one), i got it off ebay at less than half price but i have forgotten exactly how much i paid (about £10 to £15 possibly).

We love it, it makes us feel much safer when giving him a bath and as it has a hammock in the very ealry days you can be hands free (not when sitting in the bath wehn older though).
