Baths while pregnant

I took baths just got to be careful with temp and any natural oils

As long as the water isn’t too hot it’s fine! If it makes your skin red it’s too hot and can raise your body temp, which can be dangerous. Enjoy!

Yes definitely, so relaxing when you get bigger! It’s recommended to keep under 37 degrees C, pick up a baby bath thermometer ☺️

I had hot baths the entire time! The risk is that the hot water can make your blood pressure plummet causing fainting but I never had any issues with blood pressure so I wasn’t worried. I just stood up slowly and took my time

I loved baths while pregnant, used to add moisturiser and oils. 3rd time around and don’t have a bath 😭 but there’s a pool at the complex I’ll be taking full advantage of 😂 Just be careful with temp, stay hydrated in there, and go slowly when getting up/out.

I took baths throughout the entire first trimester and did not limit the temperature. Not on purpose, I just didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to take hot baths! Thankfully my son was born healthy!

Like everyone else has said, just monitor the temperature. It was a lifesaver in the 3rd trimester once Braxton hicks started or the baby would get in a kicking spree.

Same as above, it’s safe as long as you regulate the temperature. The risk with bathing is that of overheating which is easy to control ☺️ enjoy your bath mama

Some evidence suggests that increased body temperature in the early weeks of pregnancy may increase the risk of spina bifida, so just don't have the bath too hot! I had baths in the first 4 weeks very hot though, as I didn't know I was pregnant, and now I'm sitting here with a healthy 6 month old :)

I had baths as we didn’t have a shower. Wasn’t that long ago that showers weren’t that common in homes. Just need to be wary of the temperature and getting out.
