Is it ok to have a bubble bath when pregnant? I feel like I read somewhere that you shouldn't. I know the water shouldn't be super hot but I'm wondering specifically about bubbles.

A regular bubble bath should be fine but jets and hot jacuzzis are a no no for most doctors

I take them. Definitely not all that satisfying given that they can't be too hot and I get cold pretty quickly because I can't get my belly fully submerged (even in my very deep soaker tub!) but you can definitely take them.

I heard they were fine as long as the water isn't over 101

Excellent! I feel like one is in order tonight
@hergreenapples: yeah I usually like my baths and showers super hot so it's been an adjustment!

i think the concern is yeast infections.... when i was a kid i was prone to them, pediatrician said no more bubble baths

I think hot showers are ok-they don't raise your body temp the way a bath does
I'm so far along now, just my backside fits in the tub, so I go pretty hot now. I only take them when my back hurts or inner thigh ligaments hurt, though, and not for too long
