This is the first "two weeks waiting" I've ever had, that doesn't seem to be slowly crawling by.
I have been in so much pain the last few days my focus has been on NOT being in pain anymore. I usually avoid anything a pregnant women should avoid during my two weeks waiting period. . . including bubble baths. However, my pain the last few days has been so great I had a bath twice. I might even have one tonight. I know the heat can potentially jeopardize a growing baby...but I have not been pregnant in over a year of trying...and if I never get pregnant I can't indefinitely live two weeks a cycle not taking baths, pain killers, drinking caffeine, not eating blue cheese dressing, lunch meat etc... There has to be some balance.
I think ordinarily I'll adhere to my strict two weeks waiting policy...but when taking a bubble bath relieves so much pain, and I'm not sure whether I am pregnant or not...I am going to henceforth take a bubble bath.

Good for you girl! Don't regret one minute of it! Even if you are pregnant, the egg is so small and deep in your uterus at this point, a bath won't do any harm. That is unless the water was so hot that it could have burned your skin. What dpo are you? I am having a good 2ww too!
Good for you girl! God is in control of all of it. We can "don't do" and "better do" ourselves to death but ultimately God is in control and whether or not you take a bath, drink caffine or take your vitamin...it will not change the plans He has for you. I don't want this to sound like I'm saying we shouldn't worry about anything cause He did give us a brain and allows us to make choices. I am proud of you for relaxing and doing what your body needed most.
And just like the comment above me says, it would have to be hotter than I'm sure your water heater gets in order for it to make a difference.
PS- I've eaten lunch meat while pregnant with all 3 of my kids :)
