Robin and I quickly adapted. On cold evenings, we now turn on the heater and run the hot water to warm the bathroom to near tropic conditions. We pour warm water over her bath sling before she gets in it and make sure we're constantly pouring warm water over her so she doesn't feel even the slightest chill. After the bath is over, we quickly wrap her in a warmed towel and even dress her in the bathroom if it is too cold (per her momma's thermostat) in her room.
Now, she seems to love her baths -- so much that she seems to be in a trance-like state. They've really turned into a peaceful, enjoyable experience for everybody involved.
A bath with a conscience

What a doll!
Oh how I remember those first bath days! Once we got our routine down, it became our favorite time of the day. One of my favorite pictures of Anna Kate was of her ASLEEP in the bath sling. She just fell sound asleep as we were washing her. Can't blame her, really. :)
These pictures and stories are so sweet. :)
