Blooming Bath’s petal baby bathtub (around $40 with free shipping for Prime members on Amazon) is a comfy way to bathe babies whose necks aren’t yet strong enough to hold their heads up.
The machine-washable-and-dryable bathtub comes in six colors: turquoise (pictured right), canary yellow, ivory, white, green, and hot pink, and provides a soft, plush cradle for baby that’s way easier and more pleasing to baby than hard-plastic bathtubs.
The bathtub fits most sinks, weighs a little over one pound when dry, measures 32 inches in diameter, and contains no BPA, latex or phthalate.
The manufacturer recommends folding the petals over the center of the bath, and pushing down, to remove most of the water before removing the Blooming Bath from the sink.
The Blooming Bath petal bathtub is available here.
