Bath time
Joseph's umbilical cord came off last week but I'm so reluctant to give him a full blown bath yet - it seems so soon! We do a sponge bath before bedtime now - how old was your baby when you started bath time?

Re: Bath time
i was afraid too. I waited a week after the cord came off and man was she dirty. (gook in her folds and stuff). I guess my sponge baths were not all that thorough

My Mom gave her, her first bath the day her belly button fell off. I was too insecure and wanted her to show me.

Re: Bath time
She got her first real bath at 12 days old. It was fine and she did really well.

Re: Bath time
Alex was born in Ireland and they gave him a full bath the day he was born and then each night in the hospital we gave him a full bath. He was fine, no problems and we continued with the bath at home as well. Although, not everyday.

I'm so terrible. I know you meant the cord, but I couldn't help cracking up, because I was picturing a little belly button just flopping off. Sorry to laugh

Re: Bath time
It took 3 weeks for Salvatore's cord to fall completely off. I gave him a bath the very next day. Now I do it every other day as part of his bedtime routine.
