After reading this I feel like I should bathe her everyday now. I will do quick little wash-ups in between, if she spits up. She does enjoy baths, I think we'll wait until she can play more and sit up better before we do daily baths.

When she was a newborn I gave her a nightly sponge bath to help her sleep, and to get all the milk out of her neck rolls! venice4504 on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-33505 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 23:41:32 +0000 venice4504 33505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We're def. on the every other to everyday baths around here.

He loves baths, and wouldn't mind doing it daily, but we are lazy.

It's part of LO's bedtime routine and relaxes him to sleep. Plus, I think it's good to make sure his booty is squeaky clean after a day of poops, lol. heffalump on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32658 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 20:22:50 +0000 heffalump 32658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Rubies: I think we're at the tolerating stage. Although she just started kicking her legs a lot today, I think she's trying to splash.

She used to hate it...Then tolerated it...Now I think she might even like it! sunshine44 on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32655 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 20:17:15 +0000 sunshine44 32655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Ya, I figure we'll wait till she can hold herself up. She loves splashing in the water so I can't wait till she can play in the big tub! heffalump on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32650 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 20:13:30 +0000 heffalump 32650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sunshine44: I really don't know, but we're waiting until she can sit up better. cupcakemama on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32604 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 19:07:45 +0000 cupcakemama 32604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Stinky family here too. We do it every 2-3 days, usually 2. LO loves the bath so it is more because he doesn't really need it.

She's 2 months old and starting to outgrow her puj tub too. She absolutely loves her bath time! mekarual on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32578 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 18:19:40 +0000 mekarual 32578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Pretty much every day (She's 3 months old). She spits up a lot and sometimes it gets in her hair if she's lying on her playmat, so daily bathing is absolutely needed! brownie on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32577 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 18:16:36 +0000 brownie 32577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We give ours a bath when we he is awake and we are showering. This is no where near regular. He can go a week or so between bathings. And if we do shower together regularly (every day the last 2 weeks), he only gets soap once or twice. sunshine44 on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32571 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 18:03:02 +0000 sunshine44 32571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We give our LO a bath everyday, I feel like she's stinky if we don't! At 4 months we still have her in the baby bath, but when is a good time to transition her to the regular tub/shower? heffalump on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32267 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 13:49:08 +0000 heffalump 32267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @LivsMama: My LO used to scream all through bath time. She just started not to but it's very obvious she still doesn't love it. I think that's why we've been delaying daily baths.

I know they say you don't need to do it every day but I am a bit of a clean freak so I have to do it. Rosie Girl on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32233 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 13:21:32 +0000 Rosie Girl 32233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DS is almost 4, and still doesn't get a bath everyday! We do every other. When he was an infant, it was about every 3 days. His skin would always get really dry no matter what or how much lotion I used, so his Dr told me to not bath him so often. pelikila on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32150 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:26:43 +0000 pelikila 32150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We have been giving my son daily baths as part of his nighttime routine since about 6 weeks, once his umbilical cord fell off. We don't go whole hog on the scrubbing and soap every time but the routine of having a bath before bed helps get my son into the sleepy mode and settling down.

I think it calms her. I don't always use soap though except in her booty area. She's been getting a daily bath pretty much since her umbilical cord fell off. polkadots on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32120 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:10:23 +0000 polkadots 32120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We were doing every 2-3 days, but now I want to start a routine so we started last week doing a bath everynight. She loves them!

Stinky family. owlmom on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32113 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:05:28 +0000 owlmom 32113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My LO is 2 months old and gets a bath almost every day. She has a ton of hair and is a big spit up-er, and her spit up has a magical way of getting in her hair. It's pretty necessary to bathe her every day to keep her hair from smelling like stale milk.

We started daily bathing probably at like a month bc she was loving them so much. Its also part of her routine now. Bed, jammies, eat, sleep, and she knows this now. The soap and shampoo dont bother her, but some days we just do water. Thats the part of it she really enjoys. chopsuey on "How often do you give your baby a bath?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-give-your-baby-a-bath#post-32100 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 11:56:55 +0000 chopsuey 32100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I gave my LO baths every day, but only use soap to wash her body and hair once a week.

But when did you start giving your baby daily baths?
