this is asher’s ‘tummy tub’. i had my reservations on how this thing was going to work (since i bought it almost 2 years ago from a friend here in Mada). Europeans are ape about this thing, but to most of us from N.America it looks like just a pail. But, when we tried it the other day i discovered the genius of it. It’s shaped at the bottom so baby can sit unaided in only a very little bit of water (we fill it about 12 cm for Asher) and since it isnt a big flat bottomed tub this means it’s only like 1 litre or something AND the baby isnt half out of the water with only his back and bum in the water. Anyway. we like it and Asher likes it too.
