I give her a bath 1-2 times a week in my bathtub while I hold her. I can't seem to wash her head without putting water there. A towel doesn't get all the baby shampoo out. I want her to like her baths.
After I towel dry her, I watch her run all around the floor in circles & getting on her back to get the water of. I blow-dry her & she sits there for me to do it. I have been using Chris Christensen shampoo & conditioner. It smells soooo good. I read it on a thread from this website & I ordered it. I was reluctant but am glad I did. It is great!!!

Can someone tell me how I can get her to love her bath & not be so scared? I need to trim her nail & I am scared I will hurt her. How far down do you go?
