Is this good for a newborn baby/ first bath? Is the mesh soft enough for newborn skin?

I didn't use this for my baby as a newborn. Personally, I'd prefer something more substantial for a newborn

It's difficult for new born first bath. Atleast we find it difficult. The mesh is just ok
2029182
I think so. Our newborn son was quite comfy in it. If you are concerned, it's easy to stick a towel or washcloth under them.

The new born may be too tiny for this. Second thing, some times babies will startle when you spray water on them, so the chances of slipping are a lot which is dangerous ( solution: Use a towel on top of this as it increase friction and reduces slippage)The mesh is soft enough for the new born's skin.We ended up returning ours, but got it as a gift from a friend, so ended up using it!. Folds terrible, but other wise works fine.

Nothing will ever be good enough for our little ones. That being said I warm it with water first and then then used it. I haven't had an issue. This fits in the sink also ,which is great for bathing in the first few months.

Yes. My granddaughter didn't mindit. It came highly recommended by a Co - worker and I would recommend it to anyone.

Yes this is perfect for a newborn. I used it from the day my daughter was born and still use it 6 months later. The mesh is soft.

Assuming you mean 9 month old? And it's big enough but I don't really recommend it for that age. (Or at all to be honest)It's really best for newborns. It lays pretty flat on the floor so if you put your 9 month old baby in it they'll just sit in it like you put them on a bean bag... But can easily roll over. We gave ours away by 6 months as we didn't use it for the baby...My 3year old loved it and pretended she was a turtle :) watch out for the seams though- I returned mine and the second one also split (and little styrofoam beads spilled everywhere) so I sewed the second one. I don't really recommend these seats period. Assuming you mean 9 month old? And it's big enough but I don't really recommend it for that age. (Or at all to be honest)It's really best for newborns.

its great to bath newborns, you use the fabric mesh that is shown on the picture and you can bath him securely... I used with my newborn and I felt more confident since I´m a new mom.

hi, I have one of this but it has a cushion with plastic hooks that you can select the level where will be the baby. newborn is highest level. in general this tub is confortable for the baby and for the parents. I recomend it. rgds / hola, yo tengo una como esta pero tiene un colchon con ganchos de plastico con los que puedes seleccionar el nivel donde quieres situar al bebe. para recien nacido es el nivel mas alto. en general esta baera es muy comoda tanto para el bebe como para los padres. yo la recomiendo. saludos!

My twins are 14 months old and this is not big enough for them and I bathe them separately. I got the Safety first one but the plug has already ripped so I got the snug fit baby tub which is slightly bigger but does not drain well. I am thinking of putting them in the full tub but the babies are still wobbly and I am afraid they will slip even if I put the bath mat in the tub and hit their heads. I wish they make some kind of bubble bath liner that just fit inside the full tub, might be hard to clean but I am willing to do that to protect tender heads.

We used in the tub and fill up so legs are fairly submerged. Our baby didn't get cold at all. Since it's like a pillow, it absorbs the water and keeps baby the perfect temperature. Loved this bath!!!

Honestly I didn't like the nipples from medela. I used the pump and avent bottles. Don't think medela 's are good for newborns, case they are too soft.

I think you could use this bath pad for the infant and have the toddler in the tub at the same time. I'm currently only bathing an infant, but there's plenty of room left in the tub.

It's more then adequate for a newborn, I bought this for a friend of mine that just had a premie. There baby was 5lbs 12oz n fits fine.

Leacho makes a newborn version of this. I have it at home. It's the only bath I would use for both of my boys. I first got it 8 years ago for my first son. For my second, who's now 4 months old, I knew EXACTLY which bath I wanted. Now he's getting too big and moves too much so I'm going to upgrade to this one. Here is a link for the newborn version. It's WONDERFUL!!!!!! Leachco Safer Bather Infant Bath Pad, Blue Fish

Hey Anne. I bought it exactly to use against baby´s skin. I think the problem is using synthetic fabrics. (sorry my english. I'm brazilian and I prefer to buy tohose products there because of the high quality).

It is safe and it is waterproof also. but I still recommend using a mattress pad and crib sheet. Nothing is too good for a precious newborn baby!tthing is

I've tried, my baby eats her fruit every day with this! It is very good! The mesh depends on the age of your baby. The two meshes work very well.Sorry for my English. Greetings.

Not sure since we use this as a changing pad for baby and toddler. It is absorbent, soft, and large wnough for the job. I'd give it a try and if not you're not wasting money because it is a great pad.

yes, it will work well for new born baby. But I think it suitable for room temperature around 23 degree

I don't think it is good for a newborn. When my daughter was born i was unble to use it becuase the seat it is to deep and i felt that she was kind of sinking into the seat, it was forcing her little back to seat and a newborn is not yet ready for that.

It will easily fit in a sink; it's pretty flexible. Nice and cushiony for a newborn.
