I wash her face with water only too and I only use the cerave every other day. on the other days I wash her hair and body with just water.</p> <p>[attach=1326/12/m7pv8x.300x357.cerave-cleanser_300.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233316 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 06:21:29 +0000 Andrea 233316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash her face with water only. Then I take the soap and wash her everywhere else. On our shampoo days, I do her hair. She is playing and moving around the whole time and I get her as clean as I can. I rinse her off, then the bath is done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233281 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 02:45:07 +0000 looch 233281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do the same as @chopsuey119. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233132 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:51:53 +0000 chopsuey 233132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash her hands, butt, neck and hair with soap. Rinse her off and let her play :) Before I take her out of the tub I'll rinse her off with clean water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233125 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:47:53 +0000 pastemoo 233125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put his butt under the spigot and clean it first with just letting the water run over him. Then I turn him over, then I wipe his butt with my hands/washcloth. Then I put him in the baby bathtub for playtime (still brief as he's only 2 months), and then I scrub him with my hands or a washcloth. Sometimes I use soap depending on what he's gotten into and how his skin looks. </p> <p>If I shower him... I shower first, then I pick him and up let the water clean his butt. Then I scrub him in the shower and let him "play" with the water (he LOVES water). Then I soap him (by hand, no washcloth--hard enough to hold him in the shower!), and rinse him. </p> <p>After either one, I dry him in a towel, then put him in a bathrobe and diaper until he's warm enough for clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233046 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:00:20 +0000 autumnlove 233046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put a dollop of soap under the faucet and fill our baby tub. I put LO in and wet and wash her hair while she splashes. Then I use a washcloth all over. I unplug the drain and rinse her off with a handheld shower head. Then I condition her hair and rinse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233036 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 19:56:29 +0000 skibobrown 233036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every other day I wash her completely with soap -- hair, arms, body, legs, back, and diaper area. On the off days I just wash her with water -- except for her neck and diaper area that get soap every day. We usually bathe together in the tub every evening. I just hold her carefully, and prop her on my legs when I need both of my hands... no special devices required. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-actually-bathe-your-child#post-233016 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 19:43:15 +0000 Rubies 233016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is almost 1 and when she's in her tub, she splashes around while I wash her hair. Then I get into her butt crack and wipe but other than that, she just sits (or stands) in the tub and plays.</p> <p>How do you bathe your LO? </p>
