DeeDee,

That is a wonderful idea, I've not heard that one before. Although I " m happy to

say, that tonight, she screamed as usual at the start and while we did the bath

routine, but during the " sprinkling time " we have after with a garden type

watering can, she calmed down, laughed and even splashed like the ol' days. We

had a little 5 yr old girl visiting who sang to her and showed her to splash the

whole time, so I let her play extra long to try and ingrain it in her head again

that " THIS IS FUN! " . Let's hope she remembers next time. I am going to begin

the next bath with the sprinkle time and go easy on the bath stuff, just being

in the water will get some of the dirt off, right???

Thanks,

We haven't had that problem but here's a thought. Try putting Kennedy in

the tub without any water in it. Give her some fun toys and just let her

play

for a while. When she feels safe with that, put just a little tiny bit of

water it. Perhaps you could let her poor some water in from a bucket or a

measuring cup. Then keep increasing it little by little. If she can hear

music, you may want to play some soothing music to help calm her down. If

she

won't get in the dry tub, maybe she could sit on the bathroom floor, while

her brother takes a bath at first. A new bath toy may help her as well.

Good luck.

Happy Birthday to Larry.

Mine is Thursday. Going to be the ripe age of 36. I'm being positive,

though. It's all uphill from here. Leos RULE.

A dentist told me that the toothpaste is not really important. Using a

the teeth brush is enough.

Also my son hates to brush his teeth. I think it is becuase of sound

sensitivities.
