I just found out i am pregnant: 3 weeks 6 days. i have been taking really hot baths. should i be worried?

No: It doesn't matter whether the bath is hot, cold, or somewhere in between. It doesn't matter if the bather is pregnant or not pregnant. The important thing is to enjoy the bath. One can just use common sense and not stay too long in a hot Jacuzzi tub... so to avoid hyperthermia.
