For the first couple of weeks after getting Riley home, we really had a struggle with bath time. She would cry anytime we tried to put her down into water. We tried all the tubs and sinks in the house with no luck. Finally I bought her a "whale of a bathtub" and put it in the great room with her other toys. We let her play in it for a few days ....
Then I moved it to the bathroom and filled it with water. She then got in just fine, no tears, no tantrums. She has enjoyed her bath since then.
