A member asked:
Is it ok to use temperature controlled jacuzzi when in second trimester if we maintain temperature below 100 f.( not regular use)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This should be safe but even so prolonged use may not be wise. If you were to get overheated, even though you could quickly cool down it is not nearly so easy for the baby to cool down. Sustained elevated body temperatures have been associated with damage to the fetus.
