Hi all
Does anyone have one of these? Does your LO like it? What age are they suitable for?
I am seriously tempted if only for the novelty / cuteness value!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, it'd be hard for them to sell if they were bad for bones etc...
Hubby likes them a lot!
Its a lot of interesting points to think about (over a baby bath LOL!!!!!!!!!!) - I agree, I look at it and think how do you wash baby?
Also from birth, you'd still have to hold their heads.
We have a foam support for the regular bath I'd like to use so both of my hands are free for playing and washing (or am I naive and you can't not hold a baby's head at all when bathing?!?!?)

Personally I think it's nicer to use a baby bath so they can splash and kick! At around 3/4 months I started bathing my lo with me in the big bath, she started playing with toys in the bath from 5 1/2 months after she got some for christmas.
And yes, you can support thier head, one arm supports thier head and the top of thier back and holds them under one arm while resting thier bottom on the floor. While you use the other hand for washing!
- Abby loved being in the deep water but I can fill a normal baby bath deep anyway
- When they are little and are meant to like the foetal position that this bath offers they are far too small and just float around
- Once they are a bit bigger there is less space to wash them and for them to play - Abby has been splashing around since about 10 weeks and grabbing her duck )
- It is quite difficult to hold the baby and wash them in it
Overall I would recommend a normal baby bath. Hope that helps,

I got a baby bath from Asda for ??2.49 (check them out!) and I loved it, never used a bath support as Gabe liked the water quite deep plus I didnt see the point. It got good use out of it till he was about 8 months.
