Europeans Do It Better

We broke out the Washpod for the first time the other night. What is a Washpod you ask? Its a genius baby bathtub that looks like a 3 gallon bucket with a padded, concave seat in the bottom that baby sits in (DESIGNED IN FRANCE!!! as the packaging proclaims). What's so great about it is it supports your baby's head well, so all you need to help him balance are your fingertips under his chin. I was struggling with holding Max's head still and washing him at the same time in the traditional baby bathtub. And no parts of his body stick out of the water except for his shoulders and head, so he stays warm. Also, I think Max especially likes it because it mimics his in utero experience. He sits with his little knees tucked up by his belly and practically goes into a trance.




That being said, its not like he disliked his baths before:
