Baby Baths??

[feeb]

We bought a baby bath and stand of ebay for $30 as i did not want to spend the money as I figured we wouldnt use it for long anyway. Its in perferct condition and a frined picked it up for me as person was in suburb next to her!!

for my first 3 babies I had a normal baby bath no stand.. just used the dining table.. but I found one with a stand at a garage sale for $5 with baby number 4 and kicked myself for not buying one sooner

If you live close enough you can have mine I no longer need it obviously but I really think they are great.. Just go for the cheaper way.. I personally don't think you need to buy brand new..

Oooh thanks for the offer aussienic..without sounding too ignorant where exactly is Boyne Island?? Near Melbourne by any chance?!?!
Have just had a look on ebay and not many at all on there and none in melb - but might keep exploring this avenue

[aussienic]

nope no where near Melbourne ;lol: We live quite a distance apart then.. I am way way up in QLD on the Central Coast...

Hope you can find one for a decent price.. Check out some garage sales too..

I was lucky and was given a set of drawers which has the bath under the change table. It's fantastic. I'm very glad I've got it as already I'm having shoulder pain from lugging my little boy around. If you are prone to any back or shoulder pain I'd say it's worth the investment.

We bought a moulded bath as well - one side is for newborns and the other is for toddlers and we still use it to save water but really she is a bit big for it now!
It was fabulous for when she was a baby, but the thing that Jodi got would do the trick - give you a free hand, and bubs feels supported! We also used a towel on the dining room table until she was bigger and splashed too much and we now put the baby bath in the big bath.
We are about to buy a big basic bath to use for Izzy, mainly to save water!

I have the $12 target bath as well- actually, I think it works great! I put it in the big bath and use it for Peter with my hand under his head. Maybe something about the height of our bath, but it doesn't strain my back to lean over and hold him.

I just wanted to add that I very often take baths with Peter and we both love it so much! Most nights we are in the bath together. The skin/skin contact is really good for them and they love it. And its so relaxing! Its not always practical, but I encourage trying it!

I'm planning on selling ours on ebay in the very near future. We used it all the time with Zander, but just use the big bath with Juliette for some reason

Thanks heaps for that Trish - what a great website - I'm in Greensborough so it's not too far .. I was thinking of a stand with wheels?? Not sure if overly necessary though - also does it have a drain plug and or hose?? -also not sure if that's completely necessary either - just a couple of things that my research has brought up!!!! - Thanks again
