BATHING We had a lot of trouble with bathing, initially Owen had a wire bath support in his baby bath but he soon outgrew that. He went several weeks without a bath, the physiotherapist tried without luck to organise a bath for him. However on visiting the local baby shop we saw a Mamas & Papas moulded bath for new born babies which supported his body, leaving us two hands free for washing etc. Owen was very difficult to hold when undressed with his floppy arms, legs and head but he loved his bath and was able to move his legs a little.
