Refusing to sit in the bath 🛁

Honestly I just let my little girl explore like that. I was there supporting her as she wobbled around. She now likes to sit and play or lie on her belly and kick her legs. It took a while. I would get a sponge too. I use the sponge to clean her body while she's standing and to help with her hair. It's a sea sponge I got a few year ago but never actually used it

Maybe a non slip mat in the bottom of the bath? Xx

This is so random but my son was also like this and we realised it was because there were too many bubbles in the water and he was frightened to sit down where he couldn’t see 🙃 we tried with less bubbles so he could still see the bottom of the bath etc - he does still stand up every so often but he’s much happier sitting down now. But I appreciate not everyone’s kid will be scared of bubbles 😆

Yep this started about a month ago for us and it’s carnage 😆

@Deborah my girl is the opposite 😂 she prefers to sit in the bubbles but I usually do bubble less baths for her as I don't always have bubble bath for myself never mind her 😂 crazy how different they are

@Ebony we only recently started using bubbles because we had a wild idea that he would think it was fun but it was a hard no from my son 😆 like you said it’s crazy how different they are but it’s kind of lovely learning all these little things about them isn’t it ☺️

Yep I'm soaked my the end of every bath but he has fun. We've got a few toys he'll play with fora minute so I try to wash him as much as possible then. But he has fun in the water so it's ok

@Deborah oh definitely!! My little girl has just started to love unicorns it's honestly the sweetest thing ❤️ they're all so different and independent they're probably tiny human now 😭❤️

@Ebony ah that’s so cute! 🥰

Mine went through this phase and now he does a lot of standing up and sitting down over and over, which is just as hazardous 🤣

We use a large non slip mat in the base of the bath & just let her roam as she likes 👍 She has great fun and gets out the last of her energy before bed 🙌
