When we give her a bath we put one wash cloth over her to keep the parts that aren't under water warm. She usually ends up grabbing that wash cloth and playing with it. And, of course, anything in her hands goes into her mouth so she eventually ends up sucking on it.
last week she was sucking on it and she started gagging. I guess the wash cloth's let down reflex was a little bit stronger than she expected.
I keep a bowl of water next to the sink to dip a cup into and rinse her with. At the end of the bath, after she's all clean, I just keep dipping the water out and pouring it over her. The other night she grabbed the cup while I was pouring and pulled it toward her mouth. So she got a mouthful of water. The Doctor said we could start solids if she stops sleeping through the night or if she starts showing an interest in food. I'm not sure if bath water counts as showing and interest in food though.
She's "napping" now. She was playing with her bib and tried to get closer to it so she was using her legs to roll herself around. It didn't work out as planned. Now she's on the other side of the crib.
She had her picture taken with her cousins this weekend.
This one was the cutest of her by herself.
