Is there any research that shows if it's safe to take a bath or shower while pregnant?

Yes, there is some research on the safety of taking baths and showers during pregnancy. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that women should not take baths or showers during pregnancy unless medically necessary due to medical conditions such as postpartum bleeding. However, they do say that showering with lukewarm water may be safe for most people.
