Bath Time with the Spa Baby Tub

I couldn't wait to try this one soon as it arrived at the store. The minute we put Russell in the tub, he stopped fussing and sat quietly as we splashed the water around his body. He loved it instantly! We filled the tub only half way up to the fill line as Russell is only three weeks old. Too much water in the tub makes it hard to hold him, and is unnecessary.

This is would make a great shower gift. I'll be giving many of these to my new mommy friends. LOVE IT!

From the company: "When the owners of The Spa Baby had a baby boy, they tried several of the common tubs that require your baby to lie back in the water. The baby found it cold, uncomfortable and he hated baths - which made it a stressful experience for parents and baby alike. Then they discovered what the Europeans have been doing for years. They bathe their babies in tubs that let them sit in a natural upright position with warm water to their shoulders. The tub calms the baby by providing an environment much like the one where they spent their first nine months. It's no wonder they relax completely and enjoy it so much! And best of all, it is easy to use from newborn until your baby can go into an adult tub. It's even great for colicky babies."

Pictured above is our newborn baby boy Russell just yesterday, who clearly enjoyed his first time in the Spa Baby! As Nanny, Poppy, and Daddy attentively watched, I lowered him down into the tub slowly, and gently bathed him with a soft cloth. Within minutes, he was scrubbed clean and ready for a swaddling and a nap! Two thumbs up for the Spa Baby!
