lhacking13 says "great for small babies and travel" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

The Mother's Touch Baby Bather was great for us because we were moving when our baby was born. I loved that it was mesh to dry quickly, could fold up, and fit in the sink or the tub. We didn't have room for a regular plastic baby tub and so this was given to us and was great. Our baby wasn't large so she fit in it perfectly. Now that she's squirming and sitting up we need something new. There are some draw backs. First, you have be careful because the baby can slid out if they move a lot. Not a problem in the sink, but it was in the tub. The second problem is if you have a larger baby they just won't fit. At 6 months our baby is only 15 pounds and just fits, but is ready to be moved out. This is not the tub for anyone that is not comfortable bathing babies. We were in the middle of a move and it was very convienent to pack up in the luggage. It also dried quickly because it was mesh, so I never had to worry about wet things being packed. If you are considering this tub, you want a small...

kacielynn says "Baby Bather is for expert Baby Bathers!" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

I thought this would be a great help at bathtime because my daughter loves the water! She likes to kick her feet to make the water splash. This bath was an absolute nightmare. You have to put lots of water into the tub just so the baby can feel it. Then you have to keep your hand on her the whole time she is in it because there are no sides and all she has to do is lean one way and she will slip out. It took both of us to bath her using this. My husband would hold her and I would bathe her. The headrest was suppose to help the baby hold her head in place but it was so thin and flimsy that all it did was add aggervation to bathtime because it prevented me from getting to the back of her head to wash her hair. I guess if you are an excellent baby bather then you could use it, but it made bath time a bad time in my home. We dreaded giving her a bath because it was so difficult!

byubelle22 says "Not my favorite" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

I bought the Mother's Touch baby bather when I went out of town and obviously couldn't pack my baby's bathtub. I figured it was inexpensive enough and I could bring it back with me (it folds flat), so I bought it. It seemed like a good idea- the seat reclines for younger babies, it has a little headrest, the seat is meshy yet soft so the water goes through but doesn't affect baby's sensitive skin, and it just seemed like a great idea. Well, it wasn't. It doesn't recline as far as the pictures make it appear. The headrest appears in the pictures to keep baby's head more in position (like a carseat head support) but it is less than an inch thick around the edges and does nothing but add a washcloth-type material under baby's head. I did NOT feel safe having my baby in this product while being bathed. She could have easily slipped to the side and landed in the water or hit her head. I suppose if you are an expert baby bather and your baby lays perfectly still, this could work, but I don't...

MrsMessiness says "Not ideal for BIG babies" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

MrsMessiness — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 00:32:03 GMT

I was not as happy as I thought I would be with the Mother's Touch Baby Bather and was frankly a little concerned with the safety of the product. It you put more than a few inches of water in the bath tub, the base of the seat will begin to float. This causes the seat to sway and not feel at all stable. Unfortunatley, the seat sits up so high that a few inches of water does not even reach the baby - so no part of their body is ever submerged in water.

The Mother's Touch Baby Bather also does not seem to accomodate a large baby well. My son was 9+ lbs at birth and is 23 lbs at four months old, so I was only able to use teh bather a few times before he was too big, although the warning and safety stickers did not indicate that this would be the case.

Overall, I would not recommend the seat if you are looking for something that allows your baby to splash or interact with the water, or if you have a larger baby.

slvashley says "It works great!" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

I love this sling for my baby girl. We've been using it since she came home from the hospital. First in the kitchen sink, and now in the bath tub. She is now 3.5 months old.

The mesh dries quickly, provides decent support, and allows water to come through. I love that it's collapsable (easy to travel with and set up in a sink!). The one thing I DON'T like about it in the bath tub is how much water you end up needing to put in the tub to get baby partially submerged. That part seems wasteful to me, and I ended up putting the seat in a large rubbermaid container so that I am using fewer gallons of water that I would if I filled the whole tub.

I looked at a lot of baby bath tubs and seats before deciding to buy the Mother's Touch Baby Bather. This is one of the best baby items I have bought. We have used this seat since our baby came home and we are still using it now at 5 months of age. I am thrilled with this bath seat.

lasschristine says "Awesome Bath Seat!!" about Mother's Touch Baby Bather

lasschristine — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 22:43:44 GMT

This bath seat is great. Made of mesh, so when placed in the bath tub, the warm water seeps through the seat. Its very comfy, yet dries quickly due to the mesh. It has 2 seat inclines and can fold flat for storage. We also use it as a baby seat around the house when necessary....
