In the last few weeks she&rsquo;s had a few quick showers, one or two baths that I more or less forced her to take, and that&rsquo;s it.

And what do we do now? I&rsquo;m not going to force her into the bath, especially since she is now tall enough to be almost-able to climb out (and then slip halfway and fall). I take my shower in the morning, and generally I&rsquo;m in a hurry to get to work after that, so I don&rsquo;t dawdle much. But perhaps I should still try to get her to shower with me&#8230; or maybe we&rsquo;ll just go swimming once a week and share a shower after that. Or maybe she will just rediscover the joy of baths.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingrid used to be very fond of bathing &ndash; bathtime was the best part of the day.
