My girls have HORRIBLY dry skin in the winter (well all year, but particularly bad in the winter.) I give our 10 month old a bath every other day (and every 2 days if we can stretch it but solids make this hard.) But we still do every day for our 3 year old because she's so active, I feel like she needs it. I lather them up in lotion and creams though to help absorb the moisture. How often do you bathe?
-
We give our 3 yr old a bath every day she goes to school. I am kind of a germaphobe. Then we skip to every other day when she doesn't have school. Our 1 yr old is every other day.
-
I have dropped both girls down to every other day but using vanicream nightly. I give them a good wipe down on non bath days. I have noticed a huge difference in their rashy skin!
I was bathing nightly as well because of daycare. But their skin rash / mild eczema has been flaring up lately
-
We aim for every day, but we probably miss 1-2 baths per week in winter.
-
2-3 times a week. We usually do every other day, but have dropped to every third day unless otherwise necessary.
-
About once a week. It will probably be twice a week again during the summer. I guess I'm just OK with a slightly dirty toddler. He doesn't get very messy with this cold weather.
-
We give a bath every night but I only use soap/wash their hair once or twice a week. Not using soap has helped keep their skin from getting too dry but they need the bath, it signals wind down time to them.
-
We bathe Bennett every night as part of his bedtime routine, but just water - the only soap we use is shampoo and that's only once or twice a week.
-
We do baths about every other day. Our toddler has embraced showers, so he alternates between showers and baths. The baby gets a baby every other day especially with the cradle cap and the eczema. We go through a lot of Aveeno lotion these days.
-
I only bathe DD once a week too; we just wipe down nightly.
Last summer she was still a baby so we didn't really bathe her too often either. I anticipating this coming year we'll have to bathe her more often as a dirty toddler hahaha.
-
11 month old gets baths on Wednesday and Sunday. Probably more this summer.
-
every night but only soap for her hair. No soap on the body (unless the bath is the result of a truly horrific blowout).
She's almost 10 months; she will sit happily in the sink for a half an hour, which is nice because if she wasn't in the sink, that is a particularly trying time of day for her. Unhappy hour.
I of course don't leave her but I can unload the dishwasher or do a task within 5 feet of her.
-
Almost every day because it seems to calm both kids down. LO2 loves the water so it turns crankypants into a happy baby. We only wash hair every 2-3 days though.
-
Every other day. Winter, fall, spring or summer.
-
We have changed to every other day because of my youngest eczema. I hate it because they both go to daycare and I want to wash away the germs but clearer, less itchy skin wins out!
-
We stretch it to combat dry skin.
I would say 2-3 times a week...more likely 2. We wipe down nightly and wash our face. Plus I coat her in aquaphor too...
-
2-3 times a week.
-
A couple times a week.
-
2.5 year old - every other night
9 week old - 1-2 times a week -
Every other night and her hair is only washed 2x per week (it's super fine and dries out if we do more than that).
-
Every day, but soap only every other because of dry skin.
-
Everyday
-
We aim for every other day for the 2 year old but sometimes it's every 3 days. Beyond that she can get a bit stinky and her hair gets more wild.
For the baby (1 month) it's like once a week. She doesn't like it and it's no fun, so I'm lazy with that one.
-
Every day. They both take pretty quick showers and their skin doesn't seem very dry so it's ok.
-
For the 3 yo with eczema-2-3x per week
Baby: 1x per week or as needed
