20 Month old scared of the bathtub?

okay my son has Always loved the bath tub, well in the past week he has gotten more and more afraid of the bath tub. now its to a point that he will FREAK OUT as soon as he sees that he is gunna get in the bath. My question is has anyone else had this problem? is it normal? and are there any Special tricks to help him not be afraid? thanks!!!!!!!!

Answers:
Oh bless him, he sounds so sweet. I'd suggest as others have, take a bath with him. Make it as fun as poss, loads of toys an games, don't wash his hair. Then the next time do the same, but let him was your hair an pour water on your face, laugh at it each time he does it an he'll soon see it's ok to get a wet face. Dad's eh, i remember my partner doing the same.

Good luck!
