At first I was totally anti the whole baby bathtub thing, but once It came time to actually give the child a bath, we were on our way to the evil baby superstore. Personally, I am just not coordinated enough to hold a wet baby who can't hold their head up :) Now that he's 10 months, he has graduated to baths in the big person tub. I have found its just as impossible to keep him from standing up in the little kid tub as it is in the big one. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2403667

We had a duck...it quacked...Cathrine loved it. I got it at Buy Buy Baby. http://www.buybuybaby.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=13589704&RN=7051& You can get a small baby tub, and then when they are a bit older they have these tubs that you can blow up.

I can see us starting at the sink but its not ideal for long term use. (TP - its as skinny as our old kitchen but a little longer) Long story short: Our tub is coated in a material that makes marks on it with your feet. its weird but we have encountered this before at our place 2 apts ago. I wouldn't put a baby to soak in it without cleaning and I don't want to scrub the tub beforehand every day. So a tub of sorts is actually LESS complicated. Plus its being stored in the shower so takes up no room. Even if i had something folded or what Jodi recommended it would be stored in the shower so space isn't really an issue. Love the comments though so keep 'em coming! I should do more polls like this but you would all think I have completely lost my mind. I have lost all ability to make decisions.

That beast will take up half of your bathroom! Something simple, something foldy, you are there to support their floppy little bodies so you don't need a lot of hardware. But I know these decisions are tough at this point in the game! Plus you can bathe them in the sink for quite a long time, no extra equipment required!

My little guy is only 2 and a half weeks old and we still haven't pulled out the bath tub, (which is a whale by the way, so we shall how functional it is). We are still in the sponge bath phase. This means towels, wash clothes, basins, and it is all done on my bed. Also, FYI, when you do the sponge bath, and I only say this because you are having a boy too, if it looks like he is getting a (excuse my language , weird to say because it is my son) boner, duck he is about to pee all over the comforter. Good luck :) I wouldn’t worry too much about the tub yet.
