Imagine having to bath your baby in the way shown here for the first few months!
After that for the next 3 - 4 years you’ll be forced to use your house bath.
Once you begin using the house bath you’ll notice a considerable increase to your water and energy bills.
The house bath is just bad option these days.
Imagine your knees and back when forced into this very uncomfortable kneeling down position.
Can you also imagine bathing your baby in the house bath while you are pregnant?
Not a great option but until now there has not been another way.
You have just finished bathing your baby in that awkward position next to your house bath, now comes drying time!
Picking your baby up out of the house bath in this position is hard on your legs and back.
The options for drying are:
1) Place your baby on a towel on the floor and dry.
2) Place your baby on a towel on the floor so that you can wrap and pick your baby up to either dry on your
chest or carry to the nursery for drying. Standing up is the hard part on your back, legs and knees.
3) You could pick your wet baby up out of the bath and carry straight to the Nursery without wrapping up.
This is a risky option and not advisable.
4) Pick your baby out of the bath while fumbling with a towel to dry with. This is tricky not getting wet yourself
and again it’s another dangerous option.
5) While kneeling down, you could pick baby up twist around and pass baby over to your partner holding a towel.
The bathing parent on the floor who is forced to kneel and twist around is risking injuries.
Combined bath changing stations are normally in the nursery for changing and are pushed to a wet area for bathing. Due to their physical size they are too large to leave in the average bathroom. Actually using them in the average bathroom is difficult because you need to allow space for yourself to work around them. Doing things like filling, draining, moving from a bathing to drying position is impossible in the average sized bathroom.
Due to the designs of these systems, a parents bathing position compared to where a parent needs to stand to use the mat for drying purposes is different. In most cases there isn’t room to get around these products when a house bath, vanity, shower and walls stop you from moving around in the average bathroom.
Since these combo units are usually in the nursery and bathing a child cannot take place in the nursery they have to be wheeled to a wet area like the bathroom.
This is time-consuming since most change tables don’t travel smoothly over bumps and carpeted areas.
You have to consider whether you want the hassle of moving things back and forth every bath time?
After bath time it is also time consuming drying all the shelves and compartments below the bathing area before pushing the trolley back to the nursery.
Most combined stations wobble, due to their construction and the wheels slip around on tiles adding to the unstableness.
This problem worsens when a baby begins playing and splashing.
The majority of these stations have the bath under the change mat so when using the bath the changemat lid is hinged to the side. Once bathing has finished you need to transfer your wet wriggling baby from the bath while trying to hold them safely and pull over the change mat lid over onto the bath. The only way to do this safely is to put baby down somewhere, usually on the floor while getting the change mat ready over the bath area and then pick baby up and place onto the mat. If your partner is home, you can have them pull the mat lid over the bath and place a towel on it while you hold baby.
The best place to rest a baby bath is a real dilemma for parents. Kitchen benchs are not designed to sit a baby bath on because once placing a baby bath on the kitchen bench or other benches around the house the bath ends up too high making it impossible and uncomfortable. Parents end up sitting a baby bath on the dining table because the bath ends up at a reasonable height. Unfortunately bathing this way does not last long resorting to using the house bath or seek alternatives due to all of the work that goes with setting and cleaning up afterwards.
Filling and empyting a baby bath is hard work not to mention the accidents that occur.
Filling & Emptying
Cleaning up the stains that occur from nappy change accidents when using a change table in the nursery can be extremely time-consuming.
Having the time to clean is also an issue, when your time is taken up with feeding, changing and settling baby for sleep.
Your spare time is when your baby is asleep, so cleaning up while trying to keep quiet and not disturb the baby is pretty tricky if you are in the Nursery.
Your TUBmat® will be in your bathroom so you are able to clean at your convenience without disturbing your baby.
Forgetting to have clean water for cleaning baby and cleaning your hands before dressing them is another issue.
You may have just undressed baby and realized you have no wipes or water.
The alternatives shown below are hard work when you are changing nappies about six times a day.
Cleaning up after a baby boy has peed is an experience not to forget.
The TUBmat® will help make your life so much easier.
Changing your baby’s nappy with the TUBmat® will be quicker and more organized than the old fashioned ways.
