Baths??

Question

I’m a huge bubble bath girl. I know they say don’t take hot baths so you avoid raising your core body temp. 
Do any mommas out there take really warm baths, or previously have with pregnancies? I’m in the third trimester and wondering what damage it could possibly do to my little man if I sit in a nice bath. I’m used to really hot water, I liked it scolding before pregnancy and never felt over heated in a bath

Answer

I have with both pregnancies.  I just make sure if I start to feel sick or too warm I get out. I also keep a snack and ice water next to me to nibble and sip on.

Answer

I've take really warm baths while pregnant with all my kids. Currently on my 3rd, even using bubbles. I always put the fan on or leave the door open and have a nice cold drink with me, and lay back and relax. I look forward to it every night when my other 2 kids go bed lol My water isnt scalding, even though I wish I could, but it's definitely hot.

Answer

I take warm baths but not enough to make my skin red.  I really miss my scalding hot baths but I can wait until baby is out to go back to them.

Answer

I’m in my first trimester and I’m taking baths on a regular basis. It actually makes me feel a good bit of relief from the symptoms. Especially my tender breasts

Answer

My doctor recommended I took warm baths, she just told me to make sure they aren’t to hot, I also keep ice water with me when I take them.

Answer

I’ve taken a hotter-than-warm bath every single night since I found out I was pregnant. Bubbles, bath bombs, salts, etc.

Answer

They’re fine as long as you don’t let the water get warm enough to turn your skin pink.

Answer

I suffer from chronic lower back pain and pregnancy made it so much worse, like I’d be in tears everyday. I used to take baths before pregnancy also scolding hot and that helped a lot because I didn’t want to take any prescriptions. Towards the end of my pregnancy the pain got way too bad for me to handle and my OB suggested I take baths every night and holy shit it helped so much. Now I know how you feel about super hot water, but you can’t use really hot water during pregnancy, so just do it a little bit more on the warm side, where the water isn’t turning your skin red and only for about 20-30 minutes at a time. I would put enough water in the bathtub to cover my back so my belly wasn’t under water and I’d use kinda hot water so only my back was getting the heat, maybe try that! Baths were a lifesaver towards the end of my pregnancy with those tremendous pains! Goodluck!
