I take warm baths all the time.  Helps with my aches lol.  My nurse said if you start sweating that it is too hot and you should get out.

Ya I was always told not to take hot baths while pregnant. But I'm a bath person. If I'm sick or in pain or have cramps that's my way of soothing so I always took them. With both my previous pregnancys and kids turned out fine lol. I didn't make them too Hott but they were a lol warmer then warm. The nurse laughed at me cuz the first thing I did after I had my son was take a bath. Almost instantly after. They were hesitant but I was persistent lol.
