Is it wrong to brush your teeth in the Shower???

Exactly...with the economy these days, it's good to try and save water. I have asked him why it bothers him and he says that it just seems wierd thaat I am brushing my teeth in the shower...

i 2nd that, save water. but id guess its a habit that could be changed.

I always do same... While i am taking bath under shower i brush my teeth also...

Haha - yes my friend, showering with someone else would definetly solve that problem ;) See, I don't really think that it is a waste of water because the water is constantly on when you are in the shower anyways, right...so a bit of tooth brushign while in there seems to be okay to me...Infact, to save time, I even try to brush my teeth while shaving my legs...okay - too much info, I know :)

Hey - thats a good idea.. I never really thought of doind it while the conditioner is in the hair..that saves even more time :)

He would brush while driving?? Now I must admit that is a first! hahah..what - did he used to spit out the window or did he just swallow the toothpaste? Hahah... I plan to show my hubby all these responses and perhaps he will realize how silly he is being...

OH...he'd swallow it. It was different for sure. good idea to show this thread to the hubby. He is making an issue out of something that really shouldn't matter to him.

Exactly :) It saves lots of time. I'm glad that a lot of people are agreeing with me that it's not an abnormal thing to do. Thank you for your feedback and have fun brushing your teeth in the shower:)

leysia, So, 3 bathrooms and your husband does not want to use the one in the master bedroom, I just wonder why? Is it declared Out of Bounds by your undoing or rather doings? Maggiepie, Well, don't assume my end as well, because I do not see anyway other than running those hot water to overcome the cold temperature times in the shower. So, just don't be too fast here.

[b]You, as do others here, assume we're all letting the shower run constantly. I don't. To save not only on water, but to have hot water when I really need it from my cranky old heater, I first lather up my hair, then turn off the shower. I scrub up, let the soap sit in my hair while I do, & when I feel I've cleaned enough, I turn it back on & shower off. If my hair still feels less than clean (seldom the case), I'll repeat. So you see, I actually use very little water. If I were to brush my teeth in the shower, it would only take a second to jet water into my mouth to rinse. Of course, as I'm handicapped I have a shower chair to wait in while the water's off & I scrub, plus I'm retired & have all the time in the world, others might not be able to follow my example. I was brought up by a wee Scot of a Grandmother. "Waste" wasn't IN her vocabulary! Maggiepie[/b]

hi my friend...I noticed that a number of people mentioned that I may have left some toothpaste behind - however, I should clarify that we actually have separate showers .... he uses the shower on the 2nd floor (the same one that the guests would use) and I use the one in our master bedroom.......so even if there was any paste left behind, he wouldn't really see it since he never goes in the shower there :)

Hey my friend - speaking of peeing, I have frineds of mine who pee in their shower all the time...they don't think there is anything wrong w/ it as it's going down the drain anyways. I personally have never done it before but I don't see anythign worng with it..

Also there seems to so many things that we have to have done each and every day, mulitasking is the only way to get everything done... Another "weird one" that I do in the morning, I start the coffee pot, and race it to get the dishes done before the pot is finished.. Its a way to fill that empty time that seems to take forever.. and my kitchen is all clean when I go to sit down and have that moment in the day when everything stops for a moment... that "aww" feeling.. Then its off to the races again.

Hey my friend - to be honest, before I read everyones reesponses, I too thought that I Was the only one who brushed my teeth in the shower...most my friends don't to it...your right - Most ppl don't even brush their teeth so atleast it's better than nothing :)
