Bath Seats

No but I am interested to know too as when the twins are a bit bigger might make bath time easier.

we got one for jack off trademe for about $5. it's the dreambaby one and it's really good. they do get abit tricky to bath at that age

I had a towling "hammock" kind of thing, which was fantastic. Totally reccomend. They cost next to nothing, I think you can get thenm at the big red shed. It's a towel seat thing, reclining.

I have a babyseat that my sister gave me. not sure the brand but is plastic yellow, with three legs that suction cup onto the bottom. Brilliant for sitting babies, not suitable for babies who can't sit by themselves. it has a sponge bottom too. Taine is currenly able to crawl out of his! really good if you have older, "enthusiastic" children who like to "assist" in washing said younger child. I thoroughly recommend, but as I said, wouldn't have my one unless baby can sit by themselves. - although a wee wobbly is okay.

Read that someone is trying to have them banned as apparenlty they "encourage" people to leave the baby to their own devices in the bath....well, they may encourage stupid people to do that, but I think most of us are quite good with safety issues!!

emma, yes you should be fine to bath the gremlins in the bathseats without having to hold them. i'm sure maya will want to help you anyway....i hope you have a big bath

I have the same thing Annie has, and it is fab!!! I'll show you next time you come over if you like.

Yer i have the towelling thing but ella wriggles off it and tries to sit up so i need a seat lol

I too have read about the bath seats and people leaving them alone due to feeling the babys are more secure! While noone on here (i hope) would do this I know of a child who was left while mum went to answer a persistently ringing phone...less than five minutes and the child drowned. It was resusitated but now lives in a home in a vegetative state. The saddest story but amazes me how easy it was for her to be distracted just by someone ringing constantly...and in less than five minutes her child (think about 18 months at the time) was left affected for life. I know this child was older but can see why some people say the mums rely too easily on bath seats etc...even for a "minute"

we have the toweling thing too - but same, she wants to sit all the time now that she can so it's really past it's "use by date".

That seat that Madison has looks good - do you think it would be ok for bubs that had just learnt to sit up?   whilst I'm still supporting her shoulders etc.

We have one of those blue bath seats as well. The only problem I've had with it is that sometimes Em slips around in it as she's little for her age. So I put a hand towel on the bottom, draped over the back, to give her some friction, and it worked a charm. We got ours at a yard sale for $3! :)
