They told me to get the water as hot as I could stand it and have a folded up washcloth or towel underneath my butt/lady bits. And no bubbles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-first-bath-pp#post-526371 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 23:12:38 +0000 chopsuey 526371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 5+ weeks pp now and thinking about taking a bath tomorrow! </p>
