Hot showers in pregnancy? Are they ok

[ChildOfTheMoon]

I know this may be daft but last year I had a miscarriage a few days after having my scan and baby looked fine heartbeat and moving away. I had taken a really hot bath and within 24hrs I'd began to miscarry so I am a bit more anxious.
I'm 12 weeks pregnant and have been avoiding hot showers just cool.

Today is absolutely freezing and my shower was quite hot. After coming out I'm having cramping, abdominal pain and back pain. Now I'm worried over potentially over heating.

How hot do your showers be ?
I feel like I can't go on taking cold showers all he time in winter due to my fear

I love a hot shower, it didn’t impact my baby at all
and she’s now dancing away before bed.
I also like a hot bath but would limit the temp during pregnancy or go in for a short period of time rather than a long bath.
I’m really sorry about your loss but please try not to blame yourself.
you might be cramping due to baby growing and your body changing.

I had plenty of hot showers when pregnant with DD, she’s now a little whirlwind of joy and chaos so it clearly didn’t impact her in the slightest. I avoided baths entirely as I only like them HOT, but I’m pretty sure the guidance around baths is due to risk of the mother getting dizzy/fainting rather than there being any risk to the baby.

The awful after effect of a miscarriage is that it's very hard to relax in pregnancy in the future. I'm sure hot showers are absolutely fine and I'm sure your hot bath in no way caused your loss last time x

I had hot showers all the time with DS and he was and is fine. I'm sure it wasn't the bath that caused your loss, don't blame yourself like that💐
