Hi there! Congratulations on reaching the second trimester of your pregnancy! It's totally normal to feel achy during this time, and it's great that you found some relief by soaking in a warm bath. I can understand why you might be worried after hearing that hot baths are not recommended during pregnancy.
While it's true that hot baths can potentially raise your body temperature to unsafe levels for your baby, soaking in warm water is generally considered safe. The key is to make sure the water is not too hot - it should be comfortably warm, but not hot enough to raise your body temperature significantly. You could also try limiting your time in the bath to 10-15 minutes to be on the safe side.
If you find that warm baths really help with your achiness and relaxation, you may want to consider trying a warm bath instead of a hot one. And if you're still feeling unsure, it's always a good idea to check with your healthcare provider just to get their opinion.
I hope this helps ease your worries a bit. Take care of yourself and enjoy those relaxing soaks in the bathtub!
