From when DD was born, we used the BABYHOOD BATH SUPPORT (wire frame and terry cloth rectangle piece of fabric that slides over it), easily washable too. These are available from Babies Galore stores. This was extremely good and handy and we loved it! It fit the bath well so DD was always in the water, never out of it.

We bought a BATH SEAT too when DD was older. DD hated it. So she would just sit in the baby bath (she could sit up on her own by this stage). You can buy those non slip stick on things too. But now she is in a big bath and sits on a long non-slip mat. We wasted our money with the bath seat.

To tell you the truth, I wished I had asked BB also like you have done before I went out and bought things! Every baby is different though, yours might love the bath seat!

I spent so much money on un-necessary items though! Ah well, I know for baby number 2 down the track!!

GL!!
