What did you use when your child outgrew the infant tub

DD is getting kind of big for the infant ub but she slips around a lot in the big tub and its unsafe. Not really feasible for me to hold on to her the hole time she is very squirmy ad wants to get up and go...

Re: What did you use when your child outgrew the infant tub

i just got one of these from ebay

bathtub seat

unfortunately they were recalled in the US this past summer because they are a "drowning hazard"
but i opted to get it anyway because i have used the previously and have many friends that use it with no problems. i am sure it is a drowning hazard if you leave the child unattended...but i wont leave her when shes in the bath.

the only other option i was told is a inflatable bath tub that goes inside your tub...but i dont have the space to store that nor do i have the energy to blow it up every other night.

This but I didn't really like. I bought a soft bath mat and some toys and we were fine. With that said, DH still uses the tub even though she is way to big!

Re: What did you use when your child outgrew the infant tub

We went to an inflatable tub, then just went to the regular tub at around 15 months. If you go inflatable, I'd recommend making sure it's not too small...we bought this one and it was great but my cat popped a hole in it & when we bought a ducky replacement at Target, it was way too small & DS didn't fit in it! HTH!!

We have this for dd and it works well. She's almost 13 months but very big for her age, wears size 24 months, and she fits in this tub fine.

I saw that on Facebook but I'm afraid she will try to stand and it will tip or something. I gues I could try...

I used an inflatable tub. After that, I got one of the non-slip mats for the bottom with the bath bumpers. I was like a nut with DD in the bath.

We just got a no slip bath mat for the tub. We also instructed him that if he stood up in the bath, bath time was over.
