Baths

Contractions are 4 min apart. They sent me home till they get stronger. Which they have. But would a bath be okay to take just to ease the pain till they get closer together. I'm dialated 3 and a half. Dr said ill more n likely come back tonight or in the morning to have LO.
I just feel like soaking in a cool/warm bath?
I've read different reviews. Just curious to what you all have done.

  • YES!  The more you relax, the more you'll progress.  As long as your water hasn't broken you are good for the tub.   Good luck to you!! :)

  • Go for it. People use baths all the time for labour relief and some do water births. The hospital worries if your water has broken because of the risk of infection. Hope you get some relief and have that baby soon!
  • As long as your water hasn't broken you should be fine.  The more relaxed you are the more you'll progress!  Good luck!

  • Just like PPs have said, as long as your water hasn't broken you're good to go! I'm sure a bath will offer some nice relief :) good luck!
