The water seems to cold so fast cause I don't want her to burn when she first gets in. But it is only 5-10mins max cause she gets cold. I hate it cause she loves bathtime.

It was super short for quite awhile cause I didn't want her to get cold. Lately, I've been filling the big tub and getting in with her. That way she can play longer, and I know that if I'm getting chilly, she most likely is too.

I put the kids in while the water is filling and that way I feel like I can make it warmer since they aren't just stepping into a full hot bath - does that make sense?
Baths arent too long though maybe 10-15 mins -

About 30-45 minutes. LO loves bath time and doesn't seem to mind cool water (I run a space heater in the bathroom so at least the room stays toasty warm!). I pry her from the tub at 45 minutes.

@Mamaof2: I do the same but it's because he likes filling up his bucket under the faucet!
Anywhere from 5-20 minutes. It ends when he starts to climb out. Some nights it's just in and out fast, other nights he wants to play a while. Most night it's probably 10-15, though, including the time it takes to fill the tub (which he's in).

C has really dry skin to I limit it anyway, probably 5-10 minutes. She also starts getting cranky when I wash her hair, so after that's done, she is usually starting to be done anyway. For a while I would turn the heat up before bath time, or run hot water in the bathroom for a little while before filling the tub and getting her in, so the whole room would be warmer, but it doesn't seem to bother her now.

We use the big tub and I just add warm water as it cools. Usually about 25 min because she loves it!

Depends on how much time we have before bedtime. Bath has been as long as 45 mins and as short as 3 mins!

They're short when I'm giving them and long when her daddy is. Usually it's their time together. He puts on gym shorts and gets in with her and they play all sorts of games. Bathtime with mama is all business!

ours are pretty short, 10-15 minutes. i hadn't thought of running some more warm water partway into it. although we are still, at 12 months old, using the infant bathtub because i am too lazy to fill the entire bathtub and am a creature of habit.

Even though we turn on the heater fan in the bathroom DD still only gets a 10 minute bath because the water cools down quickly. She loves splashing around but does start to shiver towards the end.

15 minutes or so? He loves the bath. I usually end up running more water anyway to rinse his hair, so the tub stays warm the whole time.

5-10 minutes. She loves the bath but it's right before bed so I don't want her to get fussy.

Usually about 20 minutes. My toddler loves playing in the bath and his little sister loves laying in the warm water!

15-40 min. I definirely have to fill the tub up with warm water when it gets cold. She stays in until it gets late or she gets crabby

20-30 min? She's in the little tub, but I just warm it up if it starts to feel cold. I find she sleeps so much better if she's gotten out of a really warm bath and is still all cozy when she gets to her jammies.

I think the average is 15 minutes . . . I am on a pretty tight timeline when LO and I get home to get a little playtime (like 15 minutes!), dinner, and bath time in before it is time to put her down for the night . . . I usually only have about an hour or so! Otherwise, I wouldn't mind letting her spend more time in the tub (I get in with her, too).

15-25 min! His bathroom is one of the warmest 'rooms' in the house, plus the steam from bath keeps the room really hot and he loves bathtime!

15-20, once the water get too cold we make her get out, but she would swim in it all night if we let her. She will be physically cold and she still cries when we take her out.

About 30 min now because we bathe both kids together and they love bathing together so we just let them play!
