When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Nah.  We just used the sink till she was big enough to go in the big bath on her seat.  Don't be alarmed if he/she doesn't like the bath at first.  Ours cried her wee head off at first.

That looks cool.  The thing you don't want is one that will kill your back-like the clip over the bathtub ones.  Emily and Molly loved the bath, Lizzy hated it.  It depends on the baby, although I also think it depends on the season-winter babies are more likely to not like getting cold in my opinion.   :)

We just bathed her in the regular bathtub (didn't have a sink big enough to use as a bath!) in a soft, reclining bath seat.  We didn't have room to store a bigger baby tub, though, so that's why we went with the bath seat.

Ours absolutely hated his bathseat, so one day we tried just sitting in the bath with him.  It worked like a charm!  We did that until he was old enough to sit on his own.  Granted, you needed a second party around to help you get out of the tub when you were done, so some days I had to use the seat.  :-\\\\

We didn't have one of those, but they look great.  After sje was born, we were told in the hospital to give my daughterl ukewarm shallow baths.  In her few first pictures in the bath, she is crying and miserable.  We then started giving her warm deep baths and she relaxed, stretched out her arms and legs like a little frog and loved her baths from then on.
