Is it ok to use heated blankets/hot water bottles during pregnancy??

Constantly feeling really cold but worried any extra heat may hurt my baby.

I think it's important you keep warm if your feeling cold.if your worried you could add cold water to your hot water bottle and wrap it in a towel and have blanket on timer at low temperature.avoid over heating and direct contacy especially on tummy area.

Have used both throughout my pregnancy and no issues whatsoever. I just wouldn’t put a hot water bottle directly on the bump. 🙂 Hot baths and hot tubs are a definite NO instead. xx
