Babies : Bathing Your Baby

Bath time is obviously great for cleaning bub, but it can also have added benefits; a time to bond with mum and / or dad and a relaxing and soothing experience for the baby. Here are 5 saving money tips for bathing bub:

• Baths and Accessories
  • Babies grow so quickly they may only be in a baby bath for a few months. Instead you might like to bath your baby in your bath tub, laundry sink, bathroom sink, bucket etc. 
  • You may be able to borrow a bath from a friend / family member. 
• Lotions
  • Generally a baby doesn’t get too dirty in the first few months, so they don’t really need a lot of lotions and cleaning products. Therefore don’t go overboard purchasing these goods.
  • Keep an eye out for when your favourite products are on special at the supermarket.
  • You can also massage olive oil into the baby’s skin each morning and this will give you some quality time with the baby, increase the baby’s circulation and ensure the baby’s skin is soft.
