Topic: Bath on a stand Posted: 13 February 2009 at 8:22pm |
Hi Ladies,
Does anyone know where I could get a bath on a stand or just a bath stand that's not one of those complete change/bath units?
I have a change table that we re-vamped and love but the bath is killing my back and I need something to bring it up to the correct height. Any ideas??
Have searched TM and online with no luck so far.

I had my DP put the bath on the kitchen table!! Worked really well when I was too sore to bend. Remember that the litle baby bath will only last a few months.

Good point about it not lasting long.....
I got rid of the kitchen table so I could put the computer out here so the baby could have her own room lol..

What about the kitchen bench, makes it really easy to tip the water out afterwards

I used the kitchen bench too, we had a stand in our change table but it was too low for me.

We bath Thomas on the kitchen bench in his bath. Its a treat to clean up after! We'll be doing that until he's too big for it :P

We used the kitchen bench as well until they were able to sit unsupported and we could bath them together in the big bath.

I'm a shorty and can't get my arms in the bath properly when it's on the kitchen bench lol.
The only thing low enough is the computer desk which I currently have in the corner of the kitchen (Puter won out over the dining table) but I don't think it's a good idea having the bath so close to all the electrical equipment lol.
DH could build me something but it wont fold down and the last thing I need is something else cluttering up the kitchen.
Guess I was just curious to hear if anyone had come up with an easy answer for all us shorties in the world

On a side note .. we still occassionally put Issy in her baby bath .. so it will last quite a long time if you need it too. (Its only when we cant be bothered running a big bath)
Is your bathroom bench low enough? We used to be able to put her bath on the bench that the sink is in, in the bathroom.
Otherwise it might be easier for you to get in the big bath with her

I second that, N was in her baby bath till she was about 14 months lol I just stuck it in he big bath and she really liked it, plus we saved water. She sat in it fine, happy as Larry but took some time convincing her it was time to let it go
Once upon a time Baby factory had baby bath stands... not sure if they still do but it could be worth a try??

I found the kitchen bench too high as well so we put the bath up on the bathroom vanity, even though our change table has a stand for the bath its just too much of mission carrying the bath into her room. In saying that we actually just take her in the shower now as its easier and she really enjoys the skin on skin contact.

Well, we've given up on the baby bath and Madelyn has started bathing with her Daddy. They both love it and she seems alot happier with it. DH says it's just easier but I thing he just loves the skin contact with her  All good I say!!!
