When LO2 was a newborn I would bathe the girls separately, but starting around 3 months I started putting them in the tub together. All was well but it seems like it's getting harder and harder as they are both wild in the tub. I'm considering giving them a bath separately since it's really hard to get one out and dressed and keep two eyes on the other one. It's not so much an issue if DH is home and can help, though.
How do you do bath time if you have more than one LO?

The only way I do it now is to have another clean dry safe place to set LO2 and then I can leave him there while I get LO1 out.

Nope and I don't think I will until DD 2 is out of the baby tub.

I bathe my kids together. DD the oldest is almost 2 and a half and DS youngest is 9 months. DD knows to stay sitting while I pull DS out and get him in his diaper and jammies. I do everything in the bathroom so I can still keep an eye on her but she's good at bath time. When it's time for her to get out she let's the water out and carefully stands up so I can grab her. DS just sits next to me while I dry off DD and get her ready for bed.

I bathe mine together and have for a bit now, since my little one was able to sit in the tub. Its easier to do them together and they play and entertain one another though its also a lot wetter too. I always take the baby out first because my son can stay in the tub by himself while Im changing the baby but she cant be alone. Other than that its been pretty decent.

No, my older one showers. I want to have her showering on her own 100% soon so I've been working on that. I have a bigger age gap so it works.
