baths
I am addicted to hot baths. I am always cold and they make me feel so good. I know youre not supposed to take them during pregnancy but I have been taking them in a way I hope doesn't hurt the baby: I dont plug the drain, just let the hot (pretty hot, hot enough to make my skin pink) water run over my arms and legs. The most I sit in is a few inches. I also leave my bathroom door open to not get overheated. Does this sound dangerous? I'm scared I've done some kind of damage to my baby. Oh, and I'm 22 weeks. I never took a bath in,first tri.

What you are describing sounds okay to me. I think the primary concern is not to overheat your core temperature and overheat the baby. I think just a few inches of water should be just fine. I love baths as well, but I am refraining until I'm through my first trimester also. I am meeting my bath needs by plugging the tub and running the shower with a shower head on full blast. Not as good as a bath but it helps my back and my cold cold feet.
It might sound like a silly question, bit I qm a ftm even though I'm 35. I also like this board best because I dont feel like it is as judgemental as some of the others. Lol
My Dr told me I can take baths, just not in a hot tub that keeps a consistent heat. I would be lost with out my baths!!!
