Did you know that you can already dip your child to the swimming pool as early as 2 months? It has been said that early exposure to pool lessens the fear of water in the child. :)

2 months? isn't that too young? I mean, geez! won't the baby get any disease with that??

It is okay but you have to wait for atleast 3months before taking your baby to swimming. Just make sure you don't expose them too long. Just enough that they become comfortable with the water.

right.
your kid might catch colds if you let him/her stay in the pool for a longer period of time.
It could be great for family bonding and for getaways...
plus! if your baby gets comfortable with and learns how to swim at an early age, that's to her advantage. Swimming is also an important skill one has to learn in life.

Never heard of that yet. Is that a fact? I'm rather curious. Where did you get that information? Maybe you are referring to babies of animals. These offsprings learn things faster what we humans would take months or years to master. They need to be able to survive in the wild after all.
