Re: when did you first put DC in pool?
Depends on the pool - I put dd in a paddling pool at 6 mths as there was no chlorine in it - I put her in the regular big pool at a year and a half.
I think the ped recommends waiting 6 mths but I could be wrong.
Is it a reg pool with chlorine?

no, a kiddie pool. I guess it doesn't really matter, but I have one for DS, and I was wondering if I could put DD into in towards the end of the summer when she would be 3 months.

I would.
I wouldn't take DC to a public pool, but my DS was in a pool at 8 weeks old

Re: when did you first put DC in pool?
both of my kids were in my parents' pool their first summer (May & June babies).
I always rinsed them off when I took them out so the chlorine wouldn't stay on their skin. Ped ok-ed it.
