Be careful it's not too hot and some dr will recommend not submerging your belly as baby can't regulate its temperature.

I have 9 days left and have taken baths through entire pregnancy ...just as long as water isn't to hot.

I take baths due to having horrible back pain. Im 32 weeks pregnant nd have been doing since I got the okay from my doctor which was around 14 weeks.  If you're not sure just ask your doctor . mine said it was fine as long as I don't have the water too hot.
