Does your partner help with bathing baby?
Show your support
My Partner is the only one doing it, I just help sometimes with towel etc we do it in the shower sometimes. When he is around, he also does all diapers; plays with her and has her in the carrier, starts bedtime routine, he does most of the washing too
We always do it together we love bathing her she really enjoys the water and we put music on and surround her bath with plants, we try to make it like a spa 😅 we only bath her twice a week
My husband doesnt bath the baby because hes at work when she gets bathed but he baths/showers the boys xx
My LO is just over 5 months - my partner has done every single bath time except 1. I just sit and hang out with them or take some time to myself during this time :) as for your situation, it’s important to remember that your partner shouldn’t be helping. He should be parenting - which he is not.
My husband takes care of bathtime with our LO when he is working from home and on weekends. When he is in the office, I give her a bath. Bathtime is their bonding time, so I leave him to do it and only help if he asks for something. He also helps settle her for the first nap of the day when he is at home.
A friend was having her husband do every bath time. We’ve recently copied and it’s working great - he now bathes and gets her ready for bed daily.. it’s his job and he’s responsible for it. I spend all day with her so it’s nice him and baby have that specific bonding time after he gets home from work. Also nice for me knowing I have that free time (to look forward to!) . Maybe give him a daily task like this so he knows it’s his responsibility and he can’t avoid it
