DH has always done DD1, but now that DD2 is here, we bathe them together...together.

DH does DS every night when he's home in time. DD is still in the baby tub, and DH hates that, so she's my job still.

More often than not, DH does it. If he's not home, obviously I do, but when we're both around its his job.

If DH is home, I make him do it because I'm very pregnant and it's pretty difficult. But he is often not home by bath time so I do it then. So I said we both do, but it's not at the same time.
She also only gets a bath every two or three days, because we are lazy.

I do and always have. DH has an odd work schedule so he's gone during bathtime.

D works second shift so he's almost never home until after Evan goes to bed, so, by default, I do. I ask D to do it at least one night on the weekends, though.

@oliviaoblivia: plus she used to have dry skin so t was better not to do it every day. That hasn't been an issue in ages, probably because we are so smart about skipping baths.

DH works nights so when he's working, I do. When he's off, he does.

HD works until 8:30, so I do dinner, bath, and bed solo every weeknight... then weekends E always prefers I do it.

I bathe them in the morning so he's already at work. On his days off I try and get him to do it.

I go up with both kids while he starts cleaning up the kitchen. I get J out and start putting him down while DH comes up and finishes M's bath.

Both of us. Depends on the night! He teaches night classes Tues/Weds, so I do those days. Otherwise he does most of the other days.

DH does 75% of the time unless DD is really tired and can't wait until 7:15 for him to come home from work

I help get them into the tub and out so we don't have two naked babies running amok, but DH does the rest of bath while I lay out their pjs, make sure their animals are in their cribs, etc.

I do 9 times out of 10. On the rare occasion he is home for bath time then I make him do it so I can clean up dinner mess in peace.

Mostly me, but lately LO has been having major daddy preference so he's been doing bedtime a lot lately. FINE WITH ME! Momma needs a break

Usually my husband does it, provided he's home from work/not out of town. She seems to like it better when he does it anyways! I have been having to do it this week as he's not home and she doesn't seem to be enjoying herself like she normally does!

It used to be pretty even but after he tore his rotator cuff, it's been me.

DH did it while I was pregnant. But he's not really a baby guy and I need/ed a system that I could execute even if he wasn't home (he works late often and without warning) so I do it because it just works. Maybe when DD2 is sitting in the tub on her own we'll switch back.

I do it 99% of the time. I do the whole bedtime routine, actually. Once in a blue moon (e.g. if I'm not home) he'll do it, but for the most part it's me. I'm hoping as my son gets a little older (and I'm done nursing) we can trade off more, but with my husband's job it will realistically still be me most of the time.

DH does bath time while I clean up post dinner and get everything ready for bedtime. He then dresses her and brushes her teeth, I tuck her in, and he reads her a story while I have a shower.

I used to do DD1 but then when I got too pregnant to do it DH took over. He still does it now even though I'm not preggo anymore. I do DD2 myself but only because I bathe her at a random time during the afternoon.

Currently we still do it together but we only bathe her 1-2x per week.
