Is it okay?
is it okay if I take a hot bath like 104F ? Would it be dangerous for the baby?
They say not to take baths hot enough to raise your temp bc it could cause the placenta or whatever to detach and cause a still birth. I am 24 weeks and i like to take hot showers but i dnt stay in for more thn a few minutes. If i have to stay in longer i turn the water down.
I'm 33 weeks and been taking showers extremely hot! And everything is perfect..
I was sent home from the labor and delivery room 2cm open I went home took a very hot shower washed my hair with hot water also and soaked in hot water. I started having extremely strong contractions which helped me open up to 5cm I was ready to give birth they said so I guess if its almost your due date go for it other then that no
