If he isn't home they are about 5-10 but if he is home they are longer, 15-20. I have never been much of a shower singer, I sing to my dashboard, but I am a shower thinker!! I would rather wake up 20 minutes earlier to have a relaxing, shower that isn't so rushed so I can enjoy it, but with a baby that isn't always possible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-44911 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 10:44:43 +0000 prettylizy 44911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10 minutes-ish? I'm usually rushing in the morning because I like to sleep in, so it's all business to get in, out and ready for work </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-44864 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 09:09:00 +0000 yin 44864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I go days without showering (gross, I know) because I get so busy and usually forget. When I do get a chance to shower, I make sure my husband is home to watch the LO. My showers usually last 15-20 minutes, and I enjoy every minute of it. I would like to take baths more often though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-44845 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:05:38 +0000 Red 44845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to take 10 min showers but lately they're about 5 minutes. :( Instead of putting LO in a bathtub (she refuses to sit still), it's easier to take her in the shower with me so I'll take my quick 5 minute shower and then my husband will hand me LO and I'll wash her down in about 5 minutes as well and then we both come out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-44832 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 01:28:35 +0000 mrsjyw 44832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love 10-15 hot showers. No baby, just TTC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-41046 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 08:01:34 +0000 Clementine 41046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10-15 minutes pre-baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-41011 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 01:11:56 +0000 MH.Abroad 41011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As little as possible, since we don't have running water all day or heat. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-41003 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 01:03:20 +0000 tequiero21 41003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i take about 20 minutes. especially when i'm cold and i want to take a nice hot shower and don't feel like leaving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40249 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 20:15:37 +0000 Andrea 40249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 7-10 minutes depending on whether or not I shave in there, too. Lol. I don't like to take long showers as I feel like I could be doing something else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40235 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 19:44:22 +0000 mrbee 40235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get in the tub with Charlie in the evenings... we take a lukewarm bath together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40234 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 19:42:13 +0000 Sweet T 40234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wait for the baby to go to sleep at night and then I take a long, hot shower. I usually stay in for 20-30 minutes and relax. I can be in and out in 10 if i need to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40233 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 19:32:03 +0000 Meridian 40233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 - 10 mins... I like my water REALLY hot, so can't stay in there longer than that, haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40225 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 19:09:36 +0000 Mrs. D 40225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Long is about 15 minutes, unless I'm prepping for a date night!<br /> Most mornings my showers are about ten minutes. Hopefully I can still have decent length showers when baby comes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40212 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:40:31 +0000 Boogs 40212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 20 minutes. I like hit hot and I like to take my sweet time standing under the water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40209 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:33:08 +0000 Miss Adia 40209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my LO was a baby, it was quick. Then I realized I could just put her in the car carrier and she would sit there content. Now that's she 5...I hide in the bathroom. Bathroom time is sacred around here. I will take a 20 minute shower with the door locked.<br /> I have a photo on my FB with her fingers under the door because she wanted in. Mama was like no way baby bear! GO AWAY! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40206 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:26:31 +0000 mynoahbear 40206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 20 minutes and super hot water. It helps me to wake up since I'm not a morning person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40205 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:23:18 +0000 CameronsMomma 40205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My general showers are about ten minutes. I can't really get clean and wash my hair in less time so that won't be changing though I'm sure instead of every day it'll go to every second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40171 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 17:09:45 +0000 carrieknitscake 40171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>5-10 minutes. I take super fast showers in general. My husband takes forever and lingers in the bathroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40168 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:59:22 +0000 Mrs. Bee 40168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7-10 minutes sounds about right. shampoo, conditioner, wash body, wash face. i don't shave so i save some time there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40157 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:49:35 +0000 Mrs.VW 40157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 7-10 minutes I would guess. But I like them HOT!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40153 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:44:40 +0000 mediagirl 40153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 minutes. Wash hair, condition hair, wash body, shave something if necessary, heat water to scalding - scald self, exit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40133 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:17:18 +0000 heffalump 40133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually very short. But if I have a migraine I allow myself a longer shower. Love the warm water on my neck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40125 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:07:13 +0000 autumnlove 40125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually about 10 minutes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40120 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:01:11 +0000 winniebee 40120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say 10 minutes, 15 most. I love to just stand in the shower and relax, but I'm usually in a rush to get to work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40118 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:00:02 +0000 polkadots 40118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If DH is home to watch LO .. I shower till the hot water is gone. But I usually shower when DH is at work so a quick 3-5 minute shower when LO is napping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40110 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 15:55:44 +0000 Rosie Girl 40110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 10-15 minutes. I have long hair and have to shave my pits every time! If I am taking a "me" shower, its about 25 minutes, then I get to shave my legs and relax a little. Most of the time though, DS is in the shower with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40097 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 15:48:15 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 40097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably 15-20 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40064 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 15:25:48 +0000 Rubies 40064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be a morning showerer but since LO came I only shower at night when the hubs is home to watch her or when she's in bed. I think of my showers as my daily escape so I spend a good 20 minutes in there and make the water super duper hot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40062 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 15:22:26 +0000 Rescuemom10 40062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say around 10 mins! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-shower-for#post-40058 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 15:18:34 +0000 cyndistar3 40058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10-12 minutes would be a super speedy shower for me. I always shower for at least 20 minutes. It is the only me time I ever get so I take my time. </p>
