weird question, but curious to know.

FTM here, I was just curious to know. Whenever your outside in the heat & lets say you get really hot like your skin feels hot, including your belly, gets hot, would that be bad or would your baby feel hot as well?? Or when your whole body is cold, would baby be cold to? Just wondering if anybody knows about that?

Showers are not dangerous to your baby as some of your skin is not submerged. (:

Showers are perfectly fine hot!
I induldge in hot showers to help with my back and knee pain. c:

Just stay away from submerging your body. Remember, your baby relies on you 100%.

I shower with pretty hot water, not hot to the point where my skin gets red, just when the bathroom gets steamy a bit but what temperature is best for a shower? Like warmish hot? Or warmish cold? ;o

Your baby will always feel warm at 98.6 degrees which is what your normal body temperature is.

But when your body temp rises it can damage your baby. So no hot baths, bath tubs, Jacuzzis, or staying out on hot days.
