We were giving LO a bath every night but it just became too much. Now she gets one every other night, for the most part. If she misses a night I will give her one the next morning.
How often does take LO get a bath?

DS gets one every night. It's part of his bedtime routine. We skip it occasionally but try not to make a habit of doing so.

We are barhing him every 3 days bc it's so dry... Sponge bathing him in between. Additional baths if, like today, he has a blowout. But I have 4 Wks till I go back to work - I think I am going to ramp it up to every other night, then maybe every night once he is at daycare.
He loves the bath but screams bloody murder once he's out!

We upped it to pretty much every day when he started solids/crawling. Before that he'd get one 2-3 times a week.

Every other day - and sometimes I'm lazy and will stretch it out to every third day.

2-3 times a week here too. Our ped said any more than that can be drying.

our 8 week old gets a bath every 2 to 3 nights. i heard it's drying to have it too often, but more importantly for us, i can't always get my act together, and it seems to stimulate him too much as opposed to calming him down for bedtime.

We give her one every night as part of her bedtime routine. We skipped one night and her whole nighttime sleep was thrown off.

Every night as part of her nighttime routine as well. The only night we skip every week is Wednesday because Grandma babysits until after bedtime. By the time we get home he's already asleep and we just transfer to bed. He loves baths!

With DS, we use to every night until he started getting severe dry skin so it's every other night. I love bath time though because it really helps both DS and DD to unwind and go to bed easy!!

Every night since it's part of her bedtime routine. It's nearly always just water though - she loves her bath! And it's her cue to start settling down for bed.

Every night, it's his bedtime routine and dh's "job" so it's their bonding time. It hasn't dried him out yet.

We try for nightly but sometimes if she is being a pill it's right to bed.

Most nights, but sometimes during the day if he gets particularly messy when eating. I only use soap about twice a week, though.

We used to do a bath as part of the bedtime routine until his skin started to get dry and splotchy. Our Dr said to bathe less so now I ususlly do it after his breakfast every other day...and use better soap/lotion.

Every night as part of his bedtime routine! Once it became part of his nightly routine, it got a lot easier for us to be able to put him down. He absolutely loves his baths and really hates getting out!

every night, if I know we're going out and we're late coming home she will get one before we go out. If she doesnt get one that day i will usually try to give it to her in the morning

Twice a week. LO is 6 weeks old and we live in a dry climate/she has dry skin.

Every night because she loves it, but we will skip occasionally if she's having an off night.
