A hot bath also lowers your blood pressure, avoid it if yours is already low; otherwise, it may leave you weak. If you have heart failure or any kind of heart problem, you should avoid hot baths due to the fluid pressure the water exerts on your chest, which can trigger or escalate heart failure. A warm half bath (where the water rises only to your navel) is a good alternative.
WARM BATHS FOR YOU AND BABY NEVER HOT
