As I understood, out of necessity. Lack of adult font, access to river, child too large for child font and no adult font...etc.Economia by request or normative application?
In our case, she is quite petite. If she was larger, then it would make sense that it would be a size problem. At least I think fonts that Orthodox Churches have would be big enough for small infants? I guess I can’t tell for sure, though my nephew was much larger and still able to be fully immersedAs I understood, out of necessity.

We will be baptized this fall, but when I mentioned that I anticipated my 4 year old being quite angry with us all after the baptism, our priest surprised me by saying he could baptize my son without getting much water in his face. I wasn’t expecting that response! Just thought he deserved fair warning
I didn’t think to ask about the baby. He’s pretty big, but I sort of assumed he’d still get the full triple immersion. Now I’m curious!
Our daughter was petite too. However, since we were baptized on the same day they used the larger tub. She was actually overwhelmed.In our case, she is quite petite.

Oh, definitely! We’re starting swim lessons on Monday. Hopefully it helps! I would love it if bath time wasn’t always so tragic.From experience it would be good to do something in water and to discuss it and maybe even let them experience putting their face in the water.
