It's fine, I used it plenty of times during this and last pregnancy because it helped with back pain.

Those are just fine to do because you regulate the baby's heat as long as you aren't burning it's  fine

I think it's ok. Just don't use it often I used something similar a few times for mine too. Just make sure it doesn't have a pain reliever like nsaid or whatever the stuff is in ibuprofen
