What have you all used when your babies outgrew the infant bathtub but were not yet able to sit up well enough to sit in a regular bathtub?
I have heard a couple of ideas from people and wanted your opinions on these:
1) Bath Ring. I have several concerns about bath rings. First, the baby is not able to sit up very well on her own. Second, I have heard that, even with strict supervision, if a baby/toddler leans over, the ring can "un-suction" and topple over.
2) Bumbo Seat. I heard a couple people say that a Bumbo seat works well in the tub. But it doesn't secure to the tub, so I'd be worried about how safe this it.
3) Inflatable Tub. A few people have recommended those small inflatable tubs that make the big bathtub usuable. But the baby can't sit up well yet. Will those inflatble tubs work?
4) Just hold the baby up. This is what I have heard most people say to do... just sit the baby up in the regular tub and hold her upright while bathing with the other hand.
What did you all do?
Thanks!
