hCG and baths!

[OliviaL9530]

Hi everyone!

I’m 5 weeks pregnant today.. my hCG bloods jumped from 928 on 4+5 to 2,141 at 4+7.. they’ve more than doubled in 2 days so am I right in thinking that’s okay?

Also.. I’m obsessed with baths, I love them haha I haven’t had one since I found out about the pregnancy last week and it’s killing me. Does anyone know any pregnancy friendly bubble baths I can use? I won’t have it as hot and won’t stay in for longer than 20 minutes but I need one 😂 xx

I've never used any different bubble baths tbh 😂 didn't even know you should

Unless you bath in something dodgy just use your normal bubble bath 🙂

Good god just have a bath! Why wouldn't you?

@Garman
Because I miscarried in January and don't want to hinder this pregnancy with any parebens or sulfates found in some bubble baths.

@SunnySideUp2020 thanks ladies! My other half has just nipped to tesco and got the Johnson's baby one as it has nothing in it 😂 xx

@OliviaL9530 I was the same during my pregnancy - I bought the Sanex Zero bath gel and also the Zero body wash as well, just to be super safe. They're safe enough for me to carry on using with my LO too!

@cupcakesandglitter omg that's the one he bought! They had no Johnson's haha xx

@OliviaL9530 ah fab, it's great and definitely safe to use. Cowshed do some fancy stuff for pregnant women but quite expensive to keep replacing, the sanex stuff is great x

@cupcakesandglitter
Yes I saw those too but it was around £30 although that was for an oil too. I just used the Sanex one, I was only in for 20 minutes but plenty of bubbles and lovely smell too! Xx
