Q: So I have been thinking alot about my past miss misscarriage..

I have been stressed that this one may go the same way but I have a feeling it definatly wont! In my last pregnancy I had a severe urine infetion from 8 weeks onwards... so bad I needed to sit in boiling hot baths days on end to take away the yucky feeling... then I read hot baths can be very dangerous for the baby. Becuase it wasnt a natural misscarriage, could this have been the cause for the babys heart to stop beating? Anyway, was just on my mind, im avoiding hot baths and showers alltogether this time.

I also read that hot baths are bad during pregnancy, and that if the water is hot enough to where when you step in it, you have to take your foot out, it's too hot. You can sweat to cool off when you get hot; your baby can't.

good luck; i recently lost my baby at 10 weeks.

I hope its all great. I am really sorry to hear about your problem. I know it must be really hard. But really hot baths have nothing to do with a miscarriage. Get a hold of yourself. I know I have been through this road before. It's never easy. I hope things get better. I hope this help. I wish you good luck. Take care.

Well, I am glad that you have been thinking about your past MC in a positive way. if you really look at the number of MC these days they account for 25% of pregnancies. Considering there are billions of women the number of MC are in million. This message is for all the women who have gone through MC and think that the reason behind them is always unknown. That is almost never the case. In most of the cases, MC can be avoided.Sorry to say but if you ladies really want a baby you have to through a certain change in lifestyle.Hot baths are instant baby killers for male and females.I am surprised you weren't aware of that before but its ok these things happen.I would advise you to look into other things as well that cause miscarriage.start doing yoga it will help relax the lower abdomen muscles as well as tight hamstrings and back. Stretch these three body parts very carefully and you will get much better results this time. For some inconvenience, you can fix your problems. Take care of yo

Hello there! I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Miscarriage is the worst thing It takes a lot from women. I had not any experience of MC. But I had experience of infertility. Actually, I'm suffering from Mitral stenosis. Its a type of heart disease. That's why I couldn't give birth to my child. My fertility clinic suggests me surrogacy. After a long time of struggle, Finally, Yesterday I hold my baby in my hands. That was the pleasurable movement for me. I advise you to consult with a good clinic. I must suggest you take the proper test. I do prayers for you that you will become a mother soon. Take care of yourself. Good luck.

I love my hot showers, i sit in them and relax...but once pregnant, your not suppose to have more than a warm shower/bath. I've been reading and the main cause for concern is the hot water can raise your body temperature which is very bad for baby if it gets over 102. I know that if my shower feels too hot on my belly, my little man in there starts kicking like crazy...not sure if he feels it heating up in there or not but when i feel that it always concerns me enough to turn it down some. But really, the concern is your core body temperature getting too high...it would be the same if you got sick and ran a fever. Hope that helps you understand but i couldn't tell you one way or another if it would cause a miscarriage. Sometimes, they just aren't meant to make it all the way for one reason or another. I love my first at 12.5 weeks and no doctor can tell me why. It just wasn't meant to be. Good luck and i pray you have a happy and stress free (for babys sake) 40 weeks.

Miscarriages can have many reasons. I don't think the reason you are telling is valid for miscarriage. It can cause due to fetal abnormalities, weak health and also by taking the stress. I'm so sorry for your loss. I can feel your pain. Losing the baby in your womb the worst thing happens to a woman. You should consult some expert. There are many fertility clinics working. This helps a lot of couples. As when I was facing the same issue. I had a lot of miscarriages. This leads me to hopelessness. But with the help of best fertility clinic in Europe I tried to manage my health. I had IVF from theirs. Now I am a mother of twins. I hope your problems will also be sorted out. Just don't lose hope or stress out. You should also consult that clinic. Good luck.
