E has never been swimming, as she's never had the opportunity to. My mother just moved into an apartment minutes from our house, and we're planning on going over tonight armed with swim diapers (I know not to put them on until we get there :)), bathing suit, sunscreen, etc.
I mentioned this to my coworkers and two were amazed that we'd be allowed with an unpotty trained baby in the pool. One commented that their swim club didn't allow babies in the main pool (there's no baby pool here) due to floaters, etc (ew). Am I really that unusual to be going to a pool with her? I read through all the rules they posted and they have nothing specifically about babies (there is a thing about discharging bodily wastes being prohibited? Which obviously she has no control over).
Is there something else I should be doing? I want to make sure I'm not inconveniencing anyone, but it's my understanding that chlorine takes care of a lot and swim diapers take care of the solids. Do floaters (ugh) really happen any more?
Thanks, and sorry for the twenty questions!
