Scared of the bath!

Hey my daughter has become petrified of the bath. She cries before she gets in and during. She will not sit down or even kneel in the bath. Have I done something wrong? Is anyone going through this also? If so any tips on how I can make her love bath time again 😭

Yess my daughter was the same. From 1 year old and it lasted 6 months ! we tried everything including new toys etc. she just snapped out of it last week somehow. I think genuinely they will just do that you haven’t done anything wrong xxx

I’ve seen a few people post on this. My little one went through it twice. Once at 1 year and lasted about 3 weeks. And another at 19 months and we are currently working through it (on week 3 or 4) Last time she just snapped out of it one day. What helped in the meantime is getting in with her. Made her feel safer.

I sing to her and give her toys, sometimes it helps the crying but she will not sit down. It’s been like this for months and it really upsets me. The only thing I can think about is the last time we went swimming which was a long long time ago she was super scared then too. Should I start swimming again?

My daughter used to go swimming to when she was 3 months till 10 months old and I couldn’t help but blame myself too! Im not sure if it’ll help again but could try it x

My LO did this i got in bath a few times with and now is back to loving a bath with his brother

Take bath with her . We both enjoy it . But he will cry when I wash his hair that where I don’t know what to do 🤦‍♀️

I’ve tried bathing with her and it doesn’t work, she just grips onto me and stays really quiet and doesn’t move. I think tomorrow I’ll bath with her again to see if it has changed x

Omg my little one is doing the same. He hates bath time… will cry for ages.. he use to love them not sure why he started hating it
