Mums with boys - when did you stop bathing together???

[Gigi]

I was talking with a friend about bathing with DS as he's scared of the bath at the moment and she suggested we would need to stop bathing soon when he was a bit bigger as it 'wouldn't be appropriate'. As he's only 14 months I laughed and said it would be a while off.

Just curious though, at what age did you stop bathing with your children?

ETA - I don't agree with this friend but haven't really considered yet (given DS is so young!) when this lovely time together might end

i hear you Lise. It is a lovely time, when your bub is so little and you can enjoy that time together, when water and bubbles are so magical to them, plus cuddles with you. 14 months old is awfully young to be worrying about such things, (your friend). Why can't people just let your baby be, and you be, just the way you are right now, instead of worrying YEARS down the track from now. ENjoy the bonding time over splashes and bubbles.

We are very open about nudity here so the boys still bath/shower with us! Not only does it save water but it also gives us nice skin to skin contact which seems to make my boys calmer and me more in touch with us!
When they tell me they dont want me to be there I will go as too with getting dressed/undressed its their decision.

I stopped showering with my dad when I could no longer walk between his legs... so about 5 or 6
