It's definetly safe as long as you feel good! And blood pressure lowers in warm not rises. I feel very good in steam sauna for about 10minutes, then it's enough for me. It's not harmful!

My doctor told me it was completely safe to sit in one after your first trimester but only for about 15 minutes.

Oh also...ive sat in a hot tub before during pregnancy, and got too hot to the point i almost passed out and this is what my OB told me. Not saying it will happen to u but its just not safe.

Its definitely not recommended during pregnancy. Our blood pressure can rise very quickly as our bodies get overheated causing us to pass out. It can also affect fetal development if u get too hot. No hot tubs for us unfortunately. Take care.
