i wish mine liked swimming!
everytime i took him,he would start screaming and clinging on to me the whole time.
i thought he would eventually come around but he still hasn't!!!

I;d say the sooner the better but a lot of pools like them to have their 1st jabs before letting them in.

I wish I had taken my oldest swimming when she was little. My youngest jumps in with no fear (I wish she had a little more fear

) but my oldest just won't go underwater.

I LOVED swimming when I was pregnant. Took the weight off for a little bit. Pure bliss.

Over here I think they make you wait till 6 months. They want the baby to be able to hold itself upright.
