It's my first tri and the cold water is just not happening for me these days, my body wants warm water badly. But MIL keeps saying hot water is not good for baby. How warm is ok yaar? Confused.
I asked this exact thing. Warm shower totally ok and felt so nice after my walks. Very hot or hot tub type long soak my doctor said skip, raises body temp too much.
Beta in our time also we used warm water, just not boiling hot. Lukewarm is soothing for back pain. But long hot soaks avoid karo, ek baar doctor se bhi pooch lena.
I used to overthink even this, kept checking water with my hand a hundred times. Honestly warm is okay, just not the very hot one. If unsure ask ur gynac, they wont mind.
Warm water is fine, just not very hot. I always kept it comfortably warm, never steaming. Too hot can make u dizzy and isnt great, so keep it mild and you're good.
