Heating Pad Use -4/5W

tunanoodle11

When I first realized I was pregnant I had some pretty intense cramps. Turns out I had a fibroid I didn’t know about that was likely causing the cramping. During that first week I found out I was pregnant, I used a heating pad 1 or two times. I realize now that I should not have. I had my first ultrasound and everything looks good, but I can’t help but think I did something wrong. I’ll be calling my doctor tomorrow about the heating pad use during that first week. But, has anyone used one during early pregnancy? We’re there any issues you incurred later in your pregnancy? I’m mostly worried about developmental issues that can occur from heating your body temperature. Appreciate any feedback :)

There’s nothing you can do about it now. Tell your doctor so they can do the appropriate level of testing and monitoring and trust their expertise.
