How Often Do You Bathe Your Kids?

My son was bathed daily and hair washed daily as well and he still has the same routine 26years later there’s nothing better than a nice bath each day

Maybe they get dirty every day so in reality they have a bath daily

I don't bathe my son daily. When he was first born he had to have an operation at 22 hours old so we weren't allowed to bathe him till the area healed. Plus he wasn't allowed out the house as his immune system wasn't developed enough and he slept a lot so he wasn't getting dirty. Plus I was told that at that age you shouldn't bathe them daily as it dries out their skin.

Then at 9 months old he had a 12 hour open heart surgery and again he couldn't bathe him till the area healed as it wasn't allowed to get wet and it took months for it heal, plus when it had healed I couldn't use anything other than water on the area for ages in case there was a reaction.

My son is only 2 and a half, so he doesn't need bathed everyday as he isn't sweating or getting muddy and given his age his hair doesn't get greasy etc, so he gets done every few days or sometimes once a week. I've never had anyone tell me he looks dirty or unkempt.
