TTC & Baths?

[CACH12]

This may be one of "those" dumb questions I should know the answer to, but I don't. I got pregnant so quick with DD, that I didn't take time to think of this and I didn't have a bath tub like I do no either...

When TTC is it bad to take baths the next day? I know sperm can live 3-6 days, so would soaking in a tub 12-24 hrs after BD'ing be counter productive? I've also heard it helps with implanting?!? Not sure? Anyone know? TiA

Its fine to bathe, its not like bath water is going to get through your cervix and up into your uterus lol... when pregnant, however, they dont recommend hot baths (warm is fine) because you don't want to overheat.

I know it's fine to bathe, but I'm talking are sperm heat sensitive before implantation? Would the rise in body heat Deminish them? I know a bit far fetched but my baths are HOT! Lol

No the heat wont affect them �� I had long hot baths almost every day when ttc my first, concieved on 4th cycle.
