Hot bath dangerous for baby?
Hi Doc
Every article I read says that one should not take a hot bath while pregnant but it does not explain why. Could you perhaps tell me why I should not take a hot bath while pregnant - I enjoy my baths and like it hot.
Many thanks,
R

The temperature can be harmful to the baby as it has no way of getting rid of heat.
