Is it okay if I just leave my baby unattended in the bath for a second to grab a towel?

It is generally not recommended to leave an infant or young child unattended even for a second as they can drown quickly in even a few inches of water. In addition, if the bath tap is not shut off tightly and the bathtub fills with water, it could cause an unsafe situation. You may want to err on the side of caution and always stay within arm's reach of your baby while they are in the bath.

It is generally not advisable to leave a baby unattended, even for a second. The bathroom may be an exception if it has a closed-door bathtub, however most bathrooms do not have bathtubs so it would be unsafe to do so.
