I absolutely HATED my baby bath and will not be using one next time. We ended up bathing her in the bath in shallow water. I checked with the nurse and they told me it was fine to have shallow water (so she could lie flat and it was just under her ears) that way I didn't have to cradle over her with my back. it was still enough water for her to splash and kick, and from memory she only ever turned her head into the water once or twice before getting a nasty shock LOL! But there are also those bath hammock type things which are good too for those who have sore backs and find the proping hard to do. Soon after that she was able to sit up anyway, and from then on she was fine, if you are worried about too much movement or slipping you can put a baby mat down in the bath. Or if you have a clean laundry sink thats not too cold there is nothing wrong with that

Goodluck!
