"Unfortunately my gorgeous little boy...wasn’t so little after all. After struggling with a regular baby bath which he was far too long in...we found these tummy tubs in an article in the reader’s digest. Within a week we had one arrive. The little man was 6 weeks old when he first went in it...he LOVED it. He is able to sit up and look around while enjoying his bath. We are getting plenty of smiles and talking as he is able to see me while bathing :).
When he grew out of the baby bath before reaching 2 weeks old, i must admit i was a little nervous as we don’t have a big bath in the house, and I am hopeless when it comes to showering with slippery babies... These Tummy Tubs are awesome. He fits perfectly (with plenty of room to grow), they are easy to carry around (rather than balancing the other baby bath and hoping no t to loose half the water), and they only need about a 1/4 of the water that you need in a regular baby bath.
Well worth the money!!! I'm so happy i came across these...they are amazing

" Zac absolutely loved being in there and it was a very new experience for him to be sitting by himself in water that came to his neck, he loved it! It also made him discover his feet more and he loved playing with his toes.
I found it very relaxing for me and the baby, your back is already a bit sore after the pregnancy and now there was no more filling of a large baby bath and holding the baby while being in the bath. An other advantage is that it uses little water.It is an excellent product that is great for mother and child!”

"This is Mackenzie's second bath and she loves it. She is very settled and happy floating in the warm water. We bathed her in a conventional bath at the hospital and she screamed the entire time. When we got home we were very nerves about bath time but she took to the tummy tub like a fish to water.
The tummy tub is so easy to use and doesn't take up much room, its perfect for our tiny house. The tummy tub has been a great investment. Thank you."

"Things are going well and Olivia has developed quite a personality. Of course she is way cuter and more intelligent than all the other babies!!
She loves her tummy tub and is standing up in it having a great time. Thank you so much for the care you gave us both, I feel very lucky to have found you as my midwife, I always felt totally relaxed after my visits with you!"

"I just wanted to write and let you know how much we love our tummy tub!
Our little girl Chloe is almost 5 months old now and has loved the water and having a bath since she was a newborn. All thanks to your cool tummy tub! Thanks a million."

"I would have loved to have it when our daughter was first born. She is now 6 months old and really seems to enjoy the tummy tub. She sits lovely and snug and warm in it.
Also it seems helpful for teaching her about what her legs are for as she enjoys pushing up and standing (supported by me of course). I would definitely recommend the Tummy Tub to my friends.”
(Kelly, Auckland)
"We have found the tummy tub brilliant for Josiah during his unsettled time in the evening. We give him a deep warm bath and find it settles him and he usually has a big sleep afterwards.
I find the Tummy Tub easier to carry and a lot more manageable than our traditional bath as it uses a lot less water. It is quicker to get ready.”

"The Tummy Tub, what can I say? After using and enjoying the tub since birth, Finn, now 14 weeks old, is absolutely drawn to it's warm, intimate feel. Now able to hold his head up, the bath has new meaning for him.
He smiles, blows bubbles and coos through our baths, making them not only enjoyable for him, but a delight for the rest of us watching. There is most definitely a sense of security and calm, and I can't remember ever having a bath interrupted by crying."
(Lisa, Auckland)
"My son never enjoyed bathing. So we always showered him. My friend introduced me to the tummy tub and I was convinced that my son was not going to enjoy this bath either.
However, I decided to take my friends advice on board and together we bathed my son who to my surprise loved the experience! Since then we never looked back and he enjoys a daily bath in the Tummy Tub.”
(Beate, Auckland)
“Thomas absolutely loves bath time and is really content in the Tummy Tub - as you can see by the look on his face! We have also found it quite useful as a little playpen when getting things sorted for his bath and I am sure that it has strengthened his neck muscles.
Because of the upright position in the tummytub, Thomas seems to be able to hold himself up quite nicely - we hardly even have to hold him. We would definitely recommend the tummy tub to anyone!”
