Amelia's first bath was successful. She seemed pretty indifferent about it. Greg is much better at giving her a bath than I am. Because she is so floppy, it was difficult for me to hold her in one hand and wash her back side. Greg picked her up and flipped her over so she was resting in his hand and forearm and was able to wash her that way. I'm definitely not strong enough to do that.
It's almost impossible to get her to lift up her head or move her elbows away from her body, so cleaning under her chin and armpits is always a battle.
I should have brought a large cup upstairs to rinse her off, but I forgot. Instead Greg improvised and held her under the faucet to rinse off. She actually seems to really like that. He's been bathing her that way ever since.
