I've been trying to talk my LO's into taking showers lately because it's faster that way. When I'm feeling especially tired or lazy they like it though, so it's a win-win!

You mean by herself?
I shower/bathe with K every night. I usually start her a bath, or just plug the bath, shower myself, and bathe her. I use the removable shower head and wash her hair and hose her down basically. lol. She doesn't like it, but it's efficient that way. After swimming or playing, I'll shower her in the tub (from outside), but again with the removable shower head.

Not really. Sometimes she will tolerate it, like when we are traveling or something, or, ahem, after she poops in the tub, but she doesn't really like it. And sometimes she just freaks it completely.
And she really likes bath so I usually either do that or skip cleaning her until the next night.

Yes but only with removable shower head. She gets a play time bath once a week. Showering is so much faster (and in the winter, not as cold)

Nope she doesn't like getting water on her face so showers are a no-go at the moment. She loves her baths though.

He loves showers. DH usually washes him then he gets some time to play with his toys with the shower head "raining" down on him.

No, he hates them! He starts screaming! The exception being in the locker room where we used to take him for swimming lessons, and I'm not sure what was different about that...
The only other time he would ever tolerate them is if I'm holding him (when he was younger he'd also want to nurse). Doesn't really get us clean when I can only use *maybe* one hand...and now I can't at all. He takes pretty short baths, though.

DD1 went through a phase where she loved showering with us (probably from around 15 months to 2 years) - now she really doesn't like the shower. DD2 has never liked water in her face/on her head.

@lovehoneybee: oh my gosh, my kid too! It's like the water is burning acid to him. I held him in the shower while we were camping and it was the worst!

He's almost solely showered with one of us since about a month old. He loves the bath, but he doesn't end up in it too often.

My 2 year old takes showers with me or my husband all the time. So much easier!

My 2.5 year old loves taking showers since he's been 1.5! He doesn't really ever take a bath
