We bath our 4.5 month old maybe 1-2x a week. I think we've gone as long as 10 days. She doesn't really get dirty yet, just drool-y and the occasional spit up. Maybe when she's closer to 1 years old, we'll start bathing her more often.

I used to give her baths every day. My mom was helping out the first 2 weeks of LO's life so mom gave her the baths. I wanted to give LO baths every other day or just once a week but my mom insisted we bathe her daily. Said it would be refreshing (exact definition is lost in translation) and would help the baby sleep better.

We've always done baths every day but they are super quick. It is just part of her bedtime routine so she knows it is time to sleep!

Up until she was 3 months old, I sponge bathed her every other day. At 3.5 months, we sleep-trained LO and a bath is a part of her bedtime routine so she has one every night. LO is 7 months old now.

We bathed her every 2-3 days until she was 3 months. Now we bath her every day, but use soap every other day.

We bathe her everyday. The nurses at the hospital told us babies sweat a lot do it's ok to bathe them everyday. Plus she loves baths.

When she was a newborn, not much. Wiped her down with a wash cloth though most days. After a couple months we gave her a full bath maybe 2x a week and other wise just cleaned up with a awash cloth. Once she started crawling though its pretty much everyday because she gets dirty now.

For the first month, every other day. Since then we do every day. LO has LOTS of hair, and it gets super greasy looking if we don't bathe her every day.
