Just posted over in sahm, but I would like your "insight" too...this is a short version.

Do you think it is wrong for a man to bathe with 20 month old daughters?

The man is my fiancee. Hes not thier biolgical father, but he loves them like he is, and is a father in everyway apart from their genes. Is it wrong for him to bathe with them? ↓

i just wasnt sure..but iv been sat here thinking about it. and well...theyr my kids at the end of the day. Im so frightened of doing things wrong...but Im not going to be a proper mum until I start making my own decisions about them, instead of fretting constantly about if its right/wrong. lol thanks ↑

i responded to this question over in SAHM......but also I would say....it's not really up to YOU, if YOU think it's ok or not. I think it should be up to your daughters.....do you think they'd be comfortable with it? ↑

Well...My Dad was always very private.

But he didn't make it seem like there was anything wrong.

If he was in the bath and we desperately needed the toilet there was no problem.

It's just it can get a bit awkward for girls and the father because questions will eventually be asked.

I'd say up until 3 he could shower and bathe away with them no bother.

They're too young to even remember would be my guess. ↑

They certainly are.

They should never be embarassed, babies or not.

It's all natural... ↑
