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
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
I will not be tested for COVID unless I am showing all signs of having it! They taking newborn babies away from their mothers if they test positive. Over my cold dead body! No ONE will take my baby away from me bet!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Is there anyone here who doesnt take prenatals? I feel like I'm the only one. I dont take it because I end up throwing it up. And it doesnt make me feel good at all. I stopped taking them around week 7 week 8 and now that I'm almost 15 weeks, I'm feeling way better. I would have morning sickness everyday... now its hardly. I feel like a bad mom already but I'm eating healthy well plenty and drinking lots of water. Can someone ease me? I've heard of moms not taking them and having a perfectly hea...
Am I wrong for not wanting anybody to hold the baby if it's not me or my husband? If they touch them I have them to sanitize their hands I do it to my kids also??
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!!!
