just put your baby in the big tub, if you think shell fall over too mnuch, why not jump in the tub with her? its more fun for baby and a bonding experience for you.

Try putting a wash cloth under her bum it will help her stop sliding around. If that doesn't help you may need to get a bigger tub, or use the laundry trough, or kitchen sink. I used to wash my boy in his baby bath (it also converts to a seat when he could sit up) and no matter what he was always kinda big for it, lol. His legs use to stick up in the air. Now he is sitting up he sits in the bath chair and has a big bath with his older sister. It won't be too long until she will be in the big bath anyway.

I know that a lot of people buy bigger baby tubs, but I started to bath my baby in the regular tub once he started sitting up well and we have had no problems with it. To me, that's so much easier. Just make sure that the bottom of your tub is not too slippery...if it is, you can buy anti-slip mats or adhesives.

my sister had a baby and she is now too big to fit in her baby bath so she just puts her in the regular tub.

FORGET THE TUB AND JUST BATH HER WITHOUT IT...YES IT WILL BE A LITTLE MORE WORK AND STRESSFUL BUT LEAST SHE WILL FIT AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CLEAN HER COMPLETELY JUST HOLD HER HEAD AND BACK AND WASH HER LITTLE BODY...WASHING IN THE SINK MAKES THIS EASIER TO DUE HER SIZE GOOD LUCK...DON'T WORRY SO MUCH ABOUT THE BABY TUB IT'S NOT ESSENTIAL...OR GO BY A BIGGER BABY TUB IF U WANT! GOOD LUCK!

Wash your baby in the kitchen sink. Instead of buying a anti-slip mat, I just put a towel on the bottom of the kitchen sink.

Just wash her in the kitchen sick on one of those cheapy cloth covered supports. Its easier, its safer, and it works better until she can sit on her own.

Look at the little blue cloth covered square support thing in that set, thats what you want. Walmart has them for like 5 bucks.
