When did your DC start taking a bath in the regular bath tub?
DD has been in an inflatable tub inside the big tub for months now....well it has a hole and I'm too lazy to go buy a new one. I'm just scared she's going to hurt herself in the big tub (she's 17 months). Am I being silly? Do you use any thing protective?

13 months old. They were in the kitchen sink (oversized) until then.
Never had anything protective. DH and I bathe them together.

Before they were 1. I don't remember exactly. I put down one of those rubber mats so the bottom isn't so slippery and they sit on that. I don't have anything else protective in there.

Re: When did your DC start taking a bath in the regular bath tub?
I just starting putting him in the tub with me and he is small 7 month old. If you are willing to get in there is no need for anything protective. We will probably get something anyway because I am not going to do it this way every day!

Re: When did your DC start taking a bath in the regular bath tub?
Caden went from the babytub to the bath ring in the big tub at 5 months..then just this weekend Daddy gave him his first big boy bath with no bath ring..he's 8 1/2 months....It was the same for all my kids once they sat up well I'd get rid of the bathring and just put them in the tub.

Re: When did your DC start taking a bath in the regular bath tub?
She went into the tub in the bath-seat at about 7 months. At 9 months, I stopped using the tub-seat, because she was going to my mom's for a few days and I didn't want to bring any extra stuff. No problem...so I never put it back in. I just use a rubber mat with suction cups on the bottom of the tub for her to sit on.

Re: When did your DC start taking a bath in the regular bath tub?
Well DH did it (since I'm too preggo to bend and stuff) and she did great. I was afraid she'd try to stand and slip (we don't bathe with her.)
She sat and played just as if she was in the inflatable tub.
OK gotta start dinner - chat later ladies!!! Thanks for giving me the confidence to try
