Splish splash

On Sept 21, we gave baby girl her first water bath. This is something that first time parents generally get nervous about because, since babies can be wriggly with water and soap, the chances of the baby slipping into the water can be high and dangerous. However, our experience was not too bad, due to the fact that the baby bathtub we have has a sling designed for newborns to rest on. The baby really did not slide on it so she was able to sit pretty tight while we cleaned her with a wet towel, soap, and warm water. It also helped that the whole visiting family (total of 7 people) was around to provide helping hands.
