i need a little help.....

[jadensmummy]

hi!
i need a little help really......since jaden was 3 months old ive been putting him into the bath with me, and for the past couple of weeks ive tried to put him into the bath on his own, i get a good grip on him, so he's safe but he screams like im killing him and it breaks my heart.
has anyone got any tips on how to make him more relaxed on his own at bath time?

have you tried using one of those bath supports... hes got used to bathing with you, not such a good idea when they are so little.. try the bath support, he will learn to love it again..

its a bath seat that the babys can lie in freely...

good luck!

i know it wasnt a good idea, just seemed like one to naive little me at the time lol.

will have to have a look at getting one of them, thankyou

I have found that by only filling the bath a couple of inches deep Kate seems to feel securer, she doesnt like it of her bum doesnt touch the bottom!

The bath seat was the best thing we ever bought, Thea loves being in it. Id give one a go if i were you hun.

try a baby bath or a large kichen bowl or even the kitchen sink. he may be finding the bath tooooo big

Arianna hates the bath unless I am in it so what I do is sit her baby bath inside the big bath and then use the shower head over her - she LOVES it!! I only did it once as we were in a rush but she gets this all the time now!!
