What to do when newborn cries murder during shower

Hi Mummies, My 1 month old baby boy cries murder when we bathe him. I have tried sponge bath, normal bath, singing to him while bathing but nothing works. He literally screams every time I bathe him. Currently we bathe him in a bath tub on the floor as the tub is without stand and we use lukewarm water. Want to know the experience of other mums here on how to manage this kind of situation ? Would have a bath tub with stand be better? Looking for tips and advise 🙏 #firsttimemom

it’s normal, some babies don’t like the temperature change and mine was the same. nothing to do with the stand, it’s the change in temperature when showering. just let them cry it out, no choice. he’ll get used to it. mine stopped crying around 2-3 months
