3-6 months old babies {bath tubs} - New Moms

Giovanni uses the Rain forest one here
He's using it in this position now but it seems like very uncomfortable

When I'm done bathing him his back is like a little red from being on his back agains the plastic. So I'm wondering if there is anything I could use or buy to make it more comfortable for him or if I should get a new tub.

Which one do you use?

he LOVES the duck! it quacks, he just recently figured out that his foot squeaks when he rubs it on the side.

by 5 months i was putting emi on her tummy in the tub.

Does he seem to be close to sitting up? JD was uncomfortable in his tub at around 4 months, so I just bathed him lying down on a soft towel in the big tub with about an inch of water for two weeks until he could sit up well enough to use a tub chair.

I would just put him in the tub truthfully... We never bought an actual baby bathtub. We had a cheap foam mat from Target that we used until she was a month old or so.

We still use Hayden's tub. He doesn't sit up on his own yet.

that's the one we use...

We need a new one because he's WAY tooo tall for it..

Carters so long that he can't fit in his baby tub, so right now were bathing him in our tub in his bumbo. Just beware, the bumbo floats

so you can't take your hand off it.

He just sits up supported for now. I also think it's more difficult to wash his parts when he is sitting up.

I bought a baby tub and it was a waste of money IMO. I would just fill the tub with a few inches of water and lay Emma in the tub and wash her that way...she loved it she had room to wiggle. I never used my baby tub again and I had the same one you do.
