How old was your LO when you start having baths every night?
DD is 6 weeks and we do ever other night and i sponge nathe her top half the other day. But since she's been spitting up a lot I'm thinking every night. Don't want to dry out her skin though.

Re: Baths
DS is 21 months and we still do every other night. If he gets particularly dirty we'll clean him with wipes real quick before pj's.

Re: Baths
Want to say around 3 months or so when it just became part of the nighttime routine. Also it was the time when DS started daycare.
DS2 didn't start daycare till 6 months, but I just started doing it at 3 months too since that's when his older brother was getting it. Now I have an almost 4 yr old and a 20 month old.
They need a bath every night pretty much. Lol
We play outside, DS 1 is in school everyday, etc.
Maybe skip it on the weekends if we are out. Just put them straight to bed bc I am ok with going off routine once in a while for later plans.

Re: Baths
We've always given DD a bath every night just because it was our routine. She has had a few times where her skin has been dry and we've just lotioned her up!

Re: Baths
DD is 15 months and I only do baths 3x a week bc she has dry skin. But I started bathing more frequently at around 4 months Id say- before then it was only about 1-2 times a week

Re: Baths
Since her belly button fell off lmao. Her skin is just fine. We moisturize w cetaphil every nite after bath. It relaxes her and after bathtime she knows its time to sleep.

Re: Baths
At 18m. My twins get bathed every 2-3 days. Usually 2 unless they need it. For us bath time is crazy heightened play time. Not relaxing for them possibly over stimulating. We never made it part of any routine.

We bathe both our boys about twice a week. They're 3 and 15 months. They get very dried out otherwise. Our older one loved bathtime from his very first bath. Our younger one, however, was not a fan AT ALL until he could sit up, around 5/6 months. Now he LOVES it! So there is hope!

Re: Baths
Dermatologist always told me baths every night kills natural oils and is harsh on skin. My skin is very dry... So I can't bathe every day!
I bathe kids twice a week.
Wash their butts much more often.

Mine grew out of that after about 6 weeks. We bathe every 3 days although they're due today and I have no clue whenI'm going to find the time now that I'm back to work.

We’ve been giving DD a bath once a day since birth. Her skin is fine, but we also lotion her up after every bath.

Re: Baths
DS is almost 3 and we bathe him every other during cooler months and every night in the summer.
DD is 7 weeks and I'm bathing her every other, sometimes every 3rd but it will be every other with regularity now. She is putting her hands in her mouth and as they get more plump, more area for stinkyness ;)

He gets a bath 3-4 times a week because of his skin - he has bad eczema on his legs.
We do wash him down with a washcloth each night in between baths.

Same here. My boys have very dry skin & doing it more often dries their skin out too much.
