Swimming with an infant

[tinks_1989]

Just started packing and started wondering about swimming with DD. We have always taken a ring with a seat in it before when we have been swimming but I'm worried it will be too big for water parks etc.

Does any one have any recommendations on what to use or would we be ok with the ring? She will be 23 months and 18 and 1/2 lbs if that helps.

We took Megan's swim ring with her on our first two trips. They were no problem in the water parks at all.

We swear by these. Our boys were wearing these at 2 years old.

Really? That's good as I know she is happy/fits in her ring. We're they ok at resort swimming pools?

Actually, at the water parks you can hire (no charge) an infants swim vest which is great on the lazy river sections. Get them early though because they run out of them.

Oh right are they quiet small? Just she is so tiny she still wears 6-9 months clothes.

Yeah that would be huge on her thank you any way. How cute are your two

We had no problem at SSR or BWV. She was too little for the life vests at that age so it was nice to have something we were confident with.

Yeah that's how I feel. She is so small but very confident having her in her seat that she can't get out of makes me feel a lot better.

Thank you

Although the eldest probably pushed him off that raft after the photo was taken. Angelic looks can be deceiving sometimes

Heheehee
