Help with swimmin

we went on holiday when evelynn was two months old and she hated the pool.
and on thursday we are thinking or thrying her again
anytips on how to make this easyer?
she loves her bath and is a real water baby i just think she hates haveing a nappy on when in water.
i cant really take her to the pool with just a swimmin suit on can i?
i know shes enjoy it more but i dont want to get thrown out for it
we tryed huggie swimming nappies on her but she didnt like them

Aww

You can buy the swim suits with the nappy already inside it so this may make her a bit more free lol... i think the nappies are more to catch No.2's so if evelynn goes a no.2 at certain times of the day then maybe you could work around that? lol but its probs not adviseable as if it does happen someone said they will need to shut the pool lol but when i went no one asked if we had the correct stuff for her to wear in the pool?

Also is the pool warmish?... Rosie loves her baths but when we got to the pool the baby pool was closed for child learning so we went into big pool which was warmish but it cought rosie's breath and shocked her a bit which made her bottom lip go up as if she was going to cry but i made sure most of her body was under the water,,, because if u stand up in shallow end you automatically go back down in the water because its much colder outside isnt it so babies must feel the same.

Heh hope your next trip to swimming pool is a success!

Let us know how u get on

Hi there,
It could actually be the noise of the swimming baths as they r very loud and echo alot don't they?!
U can buy the swimsuits with the swim nappy already inside them but sum pools do express they like babies 2 have on the swim nappies as well.
We also have a swimseat. They r very good.
Maybe try her in the bath with a swim nappy on so she gets the feel of it?! Babies do change though so she mite be find this time.
Hope she enjoys it more!

Swim seat....?

it could have been she was a little bit young to appreciate it, they change what they do and dont like alot so she might surprise you and love it by now you could try a swim seat maybe....? i use swim nappies on cadene cause you have to at the pool we go to.... maybe if she wasn't totally in the water she might feel better, i think they're for 3 months plus.... i always take a few toys, balls, squirters etc to keep her interested too...... hope she enjoys it more this time............ xxx danica and cadene 11 months xxx
