yes.

yes.

yes.

you dont even have to have your legs propped up.  sleep any way you are comfortable because being comfortable wont last long.

as far as hot showers, there isnt a problem.  Baths are questionable (you dont want to submerge yourself in the tub).

I've never heard anything contrary as far as sitting goes. I did read something about 3rd trimester you should try to sleep on left side? Something about better blood flow and heart rate? I think I read in on webmd but don't remember the specifics. As far as hot showers, if your hot and my hot are the same the dr told me to tone it way down. I like it hot enough to turn my skin rosy. Dr said it raises temp too much.
