Since her umbilical stump fell off this week Olivia got her first "bath". I say "bath" because it was really a shower since we don't actually have a bathtub. We found this nifty bath hammock that works pretty well for our situation. In case you didn't know soapy newborns are quite slippery, so I really like this because it holds her up so I can wash all the parts without worrying about dropping her.
Contrary to what I assumed was normal Olivia didn't hate her first bath. In fact, she actually seemed to enjoy it. She especially enjoyed when I held her in the shallow water and poured water over her belly and hair. I hope she continues to like baths because I was not looking forward to bathing a cranky baby like we did with Avery.
