shower/bathe at night

Does it affect baby's lungs? Or is it just a myth?

Like how late? If before 9pm and came back home then I will shower LO. If after 9 plus came home then I will just wash hands and face then wipe her body. Otherwise normal bathe time is about 6plus

I only give evening showers (not later than 9pm) at about 18mo. Before that was all evening wipe downs. Not sure of any belief or tradition, just my own preference. Of course theres daily morning bath.

Hi sorry! What i meant was for pregnant moms not for baby. 🙂

Shower bef 7 with warm water if afraid baby to catch cold. If you're home late, just wipe their body is fine too..

Myth, most websites suggest bathing before bedtime (6-7pm) to make it part of their bedtime routine

If you do it every day before the bedtime, baby sees it as their routine and cue for bedtime. Good tool for bedtime training:)

Will bathe ard 5-6pm. Unless we come back from outside ard 9plus then will wipe down

Hey, I would suggest avoid it after 8 as there might be chances of getting cold.

No. It’s more of catching cold if bath too late at night.
