not that exact one cos it's bloody expensive! But I'm sure I have seen others that are similar? Elijah is still sometimes using his baby bath (flexi bath that's meant to do him to 4 years, har har) but prefers the big bath where he can splash....we have been using a bath bouncer chair but he has taken to trying to escape and bounce himself off...I think he will be sitting very soon so is that thing ^ worth a go? Or do you just hold your little ones?

No I don't but it looks good. I wish i'd put Immi in something like that cause as soon as she got to 8months she was pulling herself up on the side of the bath or crawling around and slipping and it was a nightmare. Still is really altho she's starting to get into playing with bath toys. I keep looking at those things at thinking they look great but its too late for Immi she'd had a fit if i put her in one now.

It does look good but i wouldnt pay that price

we got callum one of these he stopped using it when he hit 1 he now happily sits in the big bath by himself now xx

Thomas had this one: http://direct.asda.com/Safety-First-Swivel-Bath-Seat/002659190,default,pd.html He was ok in it but even when he was sitting unaided at 6 months he used to slip forward in it and squish his little boy bits . He used to get red marks on his thighs too from it pressing on him and was difficult to get him out when he was slippy and wet. The aqua pod looks better for the getting in and out issue but what would worry me about it is the lack of support around the back and sides. He could quite easily slip back or sideways even at 6 months and sitting alone and once he is completely steady enough not to you wont even need it. You will end up having to keep a hold on him anyway so a bit of a waste of time tbh. And apart from that - have you seen that price! xx

haha I can only imagine what a horror Elijah will be when he can get up and about, he is so desperate to get moving but his little legs won't do what they are told yet

we just got a bath mat. does the trick

the swivel seat was the other thing - I know the price is insane! Maybe we will just wait and see how he goes - it's a good way for me to con daddy into having a bath hahaha

I don't even understand that that is laura haha I don't think our bath is big enough to warrant such a posh device!

its tiny lol. u watch the video. i just got a bath mat too kelly. 99p from tescos

'spreads its wings over our babies in the water'??!!!

We've got a chair thing like the swivel seat but his boy bits get squashed and he wiggles so much he keeps bashing himself! xxx

Ooh that doesn't sound comfy, sounds like a couple of people had the same problem...I think mummy's back will just have to suffer and Eli can have a big boy bath

We just got a swivel seat too, we used it for about 2-3mths, and he too used to catch his todger We used to put his sponge there so it wasn't too bad, but in the end we just got a bath mat too - his makka pakka one

dita has one of the seats too and when i take her out she has red marks everywhere bless her to i try to avoid using it, altho bathing 2 kids together alone sometimes its the only way lol!

Amelia had an aqua pod and it was great for us. She wanted to sit in the bath but couldn't support herself but this meant that I had my hands free and she could splash till her heart was content. Once she could sit unaided I took the seat part away and just used the bath mat part. We still use it. She didn't have any problem slipping forward in hers but then she's a girly and a boy may be different.

hmmm well I would quite like Elijah to still have his penis by toddlerhood so maybe the swivel one needs to be avoided - maybe the pod one doesn't catch in the same way? hmm

one of us used to get in with tyler until he started crawling and was strong enough to sit up without us worrying he would slip... we have bath mats in the bath and he's fine.

i spent that one one and lilly hated the seat bit so we only use the mat!! so i wasted money on it when i could have just bought a mat!!

x

Im with LisaG - we have the mothercare aqua pod, and it has been brilliant!!

We only stopped using it about 2mths ago - I think theyre marked down atm in my local mothercare???? I may be a muppet, but mine has been well worth the money! lol xxx

hmmmm so the swivel is definitely out but the pod may still be in the running (thirty quid though??!!)

We have one of the swivel bath seats and found it really good. My sil had the bath mat one and she didnt like it.

I had that and the mat has gone in the bin as it split apart and went really mouldy even though i washed and dried it after every bath x but the seat is really good and sometimes she still uses it x
