<human>: Is there any research that shows if it's safe to take a bath or shower while pregnant?
<bot>: Yes, there is research that shows that taking a bath or shower during pregnancy can be safe. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends bathing or showering when possible during pregnancy due to the potential benefits of cleanliness and relaxation. However, they also recommend avoiding water that is too hot as this could cause discomfort for the mother-to-be.
