When did you give your baby their first bath?
I'm 36 weeks pregnant and a new mum and whilst I know each baby is different, I just wanted to see when other mums bathed their kids for the first time to get a rough idea of when I wanted to đ

We waited until his cord came off just after 2 weeks and wiped him down in between that. I also have been showering with him now as our house gets quite cold so I feel like thatâs why he didnât love the bath as much ( we used a baby bath in the living room as we only have showers in our house) but we are going to try the bath when itâs not so cold anymore x
We waited for his cord to fall off which was I wanna say around a week old. He screamed for his first one which was in the lil baby bath, but his next bath when we moved him to our big bathtub and swayed him in the water, he absolutely loved it
We did it at 2 weeks. Wanted to learn in the hospital but that didn't happen. It was extremely stressful for both my bf and I cos they're newborns. But I've now opted for sitting on my shower floor and washing her in my arms that way. I feel way comfier doing it like that and she loves it better than her lil bath
