Neena's 3 months old now and she gets a bath every other day.  She LOVES he bath - she think it's quite the spa treatment.  Hell I'd like it too if someone ran me a bath of the perfect temperature,  then shampooed my hair,  then washed me all over etc.  :o)  I don't think they really need a bath every day when they are newborns.

Everyday since the day she was born!  Now she is three and takes 2-3 baths a day

When Jacob was real young, I did it 2 to 3 times a week.  He really didn't enjoy them, so I didn't either. It was more like he was enduring them.  Now he seems to enjoy them, so I do it more often but still not every day.  Now 3-4 times a week.  As he enjoys is more and more, I will probably start doing it daily.

I didnt baby's dont get dirty like adults a washcloth wipe down is just fine especially in the creases too much bathing can take there natural oils leaving them with dry skin problems and most of my children had eczema, but those little fat creases can get nasty and infected so I always wiped those
