hi ! This is my last month of pregnancy and yesterday I read an article where it was written that we should not soak legs on very hot water for achy legs. othervise there are chances of birthdefects in baby. but I soaked my legs throughtout my last trimester coz of severe leg aches at night.. coz I couldn't sleep throughout the night so I used to soak it and it used to give me relief... now i am worried..

hi Manisha Agarwall !hot baths pose risks when water is too hot as they can increase your body temperature and damage your baby’s developing cells, . Additionally, too hot water can increase your heart rate and reduce blood flow to your baby.  keep the temperature of water warm but not hot.

Soaking your feet in hot water or doing foot massage may result in relaxing your virgina and result in preterm labour
