How can you check that all of the soap is washed out?

Well Just gave McMac his bath and I recently bought a tub of that swarfega stuff. So I used Swarfega on his grease gland and then used regular piggy shampoo on his body. He started to get very fidgety and stressed out (he does hate his baths) and so I quickly tried to rinse him off and dry him before he got too stressed out. But I am worried that I might not have rinsed it out properly :/ he still smells of soap and stuff but i can't find any suds on him...should I give him another rinse off? I don't want to stress him out too much
 
I try and rinse until I see the water running clear off their body, i keep it luke warm and normall hold my pigs so they're slightly upright, otherwise they try and get out the sink and i can watch the water and soap run off them :)
 
Think this worries most of us who bathe our babies :))
I lather my boys and rinse off as much as possible in a bowl then swaddle them in a warm towel and shower any residue off in the bathroom - when their hair feels squeeky clean, I feel the dirty deed is done :(|)
OH adapted the shower so I can use it for them...tsk ! :)
 
Well the water seemed pretty clear...hmm I guess it is ok. I hate giving him baths because he gets to stressed the poor thing. I guess he should be ok
