    leave alone in bathtub?

    When do you think it is safe to leave our toddlers alone in the bathtub?  I am talking about a few minutes at a time here, not the entire bath.

    I leave Jenessa in the bath with my almost 5 year old son. Its not for the whole bath, but to go grab a towel or help my older daughter with something.

    here at home we only have a stand up shower stall thing so they get showers one at a time. at my parents though I will leave Holly alone, but just long enough to walk into the next room and hand Aiden to my mom, then i got check on Holly, then go back out to get the towel from my mom and Aiden. we have that down pretty well lol.

    I leave Lilah just long enough to grab a towel from the hall closet, thats it.  She has taken to being a "dolphin" in the water and laying down a lot in the water, so I basically stay in for her whole bath.

     We let Regan play in the tub for a while. Sometimes this is the only time I can get laundry done lol. Our laundry room is located across from her bathroom so I can hear her playing, and if she gets quiet I can just look out the door and see her. Sometimes I leave her to go do something for Eden as well. I try to stay with in hearing distance though. SHe is a noisy kid in the tub haha. Always talking, splashing, pouring, etc. I don't ever leave her alone (where I can't see or hear her at all) for more than a couple of minutes though.
