I want to take my 7month old to the gym with me to get into the pool...is all the chlorine ok for her? or is it too much for her skin to take right now?

Yeah thats fine, babies can start swimming lessons in most areas at 12 weeks. My daughter has been going since she was 3.5 months old and now goes to 2 lessons per week. Its great for them :)

My daughter started going in the pool at 6 months, but only because she is a December baby and that's when it was warm enough to go swimming again.

hi, I took my baby at 12 weeks old swimming. She loved it and no effect on her skin. Apparently you shouldnt leave them in for more thsn 1/2 hour though because they dehydrate quickly.
