I can count on one hand how many baths I've given her. It's his thing and I love that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525818 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:35:37 +0000 keiki_mama 525818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it 80% of the time. It's such a nice break when DH helps out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525809 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:34:46 +0000 DillonLion 525809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. DH helps if he is around when I do it. Since I'm on maternity leave I bathe her mid-morning, so he's not usually there for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525803 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:33:58 +0000 MrsStar 525803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dh works days one week and nights the 2nd week, so when he's home for bath time we do it together but I let him take the lead. When he works nights then I do it by myself. Bath time is pretty fun :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525772 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 21:28:19 +0000 Bao 525772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We take turns, but when DH is on 2nd shift it's all on me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525590 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:53:37 +0000 mrsjyw 525590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dh takes the lead...and I help.

It became his job when P was a couple months old and we were having trouble working together to take care of her. </p> <p>He now loves it &amp; serenades her while she splashes &amp; "swims". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525501 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:39:29 +0000 hilsy85 525501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me most of the time but dh did it tonight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525494 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:38:13 +0000 Kemma 525494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it but I know that my brother used to do all the bathing in his house and he loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525487 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:37:43 +0000 knittingmama 525487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband. It's their thing together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525481 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:36:38 +0000 Rubies 525481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do all the bath stuff and it's starting to drive me nuts. I need a break! I'm just better and more efficient that my husband is at doing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525477 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:35:49 +0000 heffalump 525477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are both in the room but dh does the work. I think it gives them good bonding since I'm home with lo all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525461 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:33:49 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 525461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH does all her baths! He likes it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525448 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:32:25 +0000 winniebee 525448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband. He works late at least once a week though so I do it then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525441 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:31:31 +0000 GrapeCrush 525441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband has always done bath time. He gets home late so this is their quality time and my relax time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525400 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:26:48 +0000 BelugaBean 525400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it but I like for DH to help me when he can. He seems too nervous to do it on his own though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525393 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:25:57 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 525393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's a mutual thing. Maybe this is an over share, but I get in the bathtub with our LO who is nearly a year old. DH stays outside of the tub and keeps toys in reach and makes sure LO doesn't pull the chain on plug in the bathtub. We both get wet but we have lots of fun and he helps me rinse LO off in the end and takes him so I can get out of the tub. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525391 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:25:33 +0000 lovehoneybee 525391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost always do. I offer to let DH do it every night, but he usually doesn't have an interest :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525390 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:25:13 +0000 ohemgee 525390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband does. He enjoys the one on one time with her. :) I help him if he needs me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525389 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:25:05 +0000 LemonLong 525389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH does bath time. He has fun with it, we do it in the big bath tub and he likes to hold her while she "swims". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-bathes-lo#post-525381 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 20:23:35 +0000 MaisyMay 525381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is one parent more in charge of bathtime than the other? I've been taking the lead, but last night DH did all of the bath stuff and did a good job. We talked about him doing all of the bath stuff, making it his thing. Not sure if we will, but I think he likes the idea of it. </p>
