Naturally all babies loves water, since they are all floating in our womb while we we're conceiving them. But too much exposure to the water makes our babies sick. If we are giving bath to our babies we should allow them to enjoy their bath but we must see to it that there's limitation as babies are very delicate they easily catch colds. Water in its essence is not bad at all. however it's the chemical used in baby baths are making it contaminated. regarding your question if bath water will make your baby sick? well it all depends on the resistance and natural antibodies your baby has. It's a case to case basis. because there are some babies who has a very strong resistance with germs and bacteria, thus, even if you will give them a bath from a ditch they will never get sick. However, there are babies whose immunity are not fully developed, they are the babies who easily get sick. therefore the best way is to be careful in giving your baby a bath since we actually don't know the chemical composition of the baby bath we are using.
