Baths when pregnant - ok or no?

Question

Currently 11 weeks pregnant, and I have not taker a bath since we did our IUI (would like to mention I have SHOWERED, I just have not soaked in the tub). I have heard this is fine so long as the bath is not extremely hot, but have also heard it is not ok at all. 
Wondering what others on here have to say about it.

Answer

Yep it's totally fine. I took hot baths my entire first pregnancy and I'm 37+2 with my second baby and have taken hot baths this whole pregnancy as well and I have a healthy 17 month old and baby girl in the womb is doing perfectly as well

Answer

to tartly fine, they recommend not having scorching hot ones but tbh i had pretty warm ones because that’s the only way i have baths or showers otherwise i’d freeze ahaha. just take hot ones with precaution at own risk really, i couldn’t have coped without a bath during my pregnancy

Answer

Baths are fine. I bought a floating thermometer and just keep the water under 102.

Answer

My OB told me that even hot baths where okay, because most baths couldn’t get hot enough to even do anything, and even if they could the water would cool down pretty fast, unlike hot tubs where the water is consistently hot.

Answer

Perfectly fine! I don’t think I could’ve gotten through my pregnancy without baths 😅

Answer

It’s fine.
