i took my LO when she was a few weeks old i think, i had her in a swim nappy and a little swimming costume. she loves the water and have just started taking her to private swimming lessons. shes 17 months now
so yes he is fine to go swimming. if he loves water he will love swimming!
we started at about 4 months and got him a warming suit x
Look on mothercare's website for a 'baby warmer' which are little wraparound wetsuit things - DS had a 3-6m one which was fine on him even so young.
Dependant on pool temp you may only be in there 15 minutes though - they shouldn't stay in too long when they are little unless the pool is over about 30 degrees.
