I feel like since I got pregnant I’ve been told to avoid hot water bottles but after spending all…

No u shouldn’t have bath water too hot as it makes ur core temperature too hot and is dangerous in pregnancy x

@7littlegems, everything I’ve read says that a hot water bottle is too small to heat your core temperature by any amount and that it just heats your skin. Especially as it gets cooler the longer you use it not warmer? I read so many articles 😂 x

@dooniekay, u know what I still have baby Brian I read that completely wrong I read it as a hot bath !! Yh a hot water bottle is fine hun sorry x

I use a hot water bottle for back ache it's fine aslong as it's not on your tummy for a long period of time but your using it for back ache too so it's fine and it helps ! Xx

I used a hot water bottle but only on my back xx

@jodiedillon3, @genieh, yeah that’s what I’m doing 😊 xx

@dooniekay it helps until you have to move again anyway 😂 xx

@jodiedillon3, well I’m planning on spending the majority of my maternity leave lying on the sofa so it should help 😂 xx

@dooniekay I don't blame you ! Get all the rest you can ! Xx

@dooniekay you can use hot water bottles I always did just not on my bump xx

Just my own opinion here (please no-one shoot me down).. I was at my bfs dad's for most of my pregnancy through winter when it was really cold (He doesn't like putting heating on, strange I know lol) and I was also sick nearly every day and terribly nauseous. I used a hot water bottle literally all throughout the day and often had it on my lower back but more often between my thighs as this seemed to warm me up the most. I never put it directly on my bump obviously but I've had a gorgeous baby girl and it didn't seem to make a difference to her. All body's and babies are different though xx

My hot water bottle has been a life saver. I use it on my thighs and back
