STMs-baby bath tub question

I was talking to someone about their baby today and they said that many times when they would bathe their baby it would poop in the bath tub... Is this common??

With my first son it never happened.  I could always tell when he was going to poop so I would pull him out of the tub if he made those faces. However even that only happened a handful of times.  This baby has yet to poop in the tub as well.

Some babies do, some babies dont.  But like PP said, you get pretty good at figuring out when its goign to happen so you can pull them out of the tub.  DD is over 2 years old and it's only ever happened once, and never as an infant.

DS has never pooped in the bath, my nephew has a few times, I think that it varies from baby to baby.

Never. But she's never pooped in public either. She's very private about it.

DD never pooped in the tub. However, she did poop in the towel when we took her out of the tub. This resulted in one of those fun newborn poops where they poop for 10 minutes straight, all over everything. Including themselves. Fun times.

Its happened but DD used to urinate more than poop. Inevitably she'd poop right after her bath though.

My DD has never pooped in water -- in the bath, in the pool, or anywhere.

Never has happened with DD.  She is pretty much on a regular schedule with her poops.  However, she pretty much pee's in the tub every night...

My son has never done it.

But I have clear memories of being in the tub with my baby brother and screaming when he started pooping next to me.

As an infant, she never did it. As a toddler, it happened a couple of times-sharts.

DD has a very regular poop schedule, she poops after breakfast, and she always takes a bath a night, so it has never happened.  And now she hides when she poops, so I doubt it will happen now.  

My friend's daughter has done it several times though.

My kids are 3.5 and 1.5.  Neither one of them (knock on wood) have ever pooped in the tub.  hope I didn't just jinx it.

YES!  Our son pooped everytime I would bath him, our daughter never did.  We eventually got a bathtub we could throw in the wash b/c of it.  This time around we got a blooming bath so we can wash it if that happens again with this baby.

My first one pooped in the bathtub the first time I gave her a bath....she also pooped on the floor the first time I took her to the doctor's office, it shocked the doctor when the doctor was holding her...it was pretty funny!

It never happened with DS #1 until he was almost 2 years old...and then it's happened two nights in a row this week. Not fun.
