Outdoor pools hardly ever get used in the UK, and certainly not this year  >:(! Plus Jacob doesn't like them much due to them tending to be cold and tending to get the odd blade of grass in them  ::).

Jacob is FINE in the bath. He will go under a shower and get water all over his face, will lie down so I can wash his hair, will blow bubbles etc. But hates the pool, so I guess we are at the stage where we need to slowly start doing the pool itself.

Great to hear people's experiences though, and that life jackets and swim fins both have fans. I just need to decide which one to try now!

We got ayden a swim fin for when we went on holiday. Ayden used this with armbands but held onto us for dear life then dh took off the bands and by the time holiday was just about finished we couldn't get him out the pool!!! And that was the deep end!! Highly recommend them.
