Hot water bottle when pregnant

I keep getting such bad pains under my ribs (I’m only 12 weeks) I have a feeling it’s constipation, it was relived after a hot bath but is now painful again so hoping a hot water bottle will do the trick.

Will the baby be safe if I use one. Should I keep it off the bottom of my belly and just put it under the ribs?

Thanks all
