I DO!!! during the school year at least.

6/21/2008 11:13:25 PM

Have you thought about taking a bath....on weeeed

6/21/2008 11:13:35 PM

Get a tv or radio and set it on the edge of the tub to watch/listen while you bathe.

6/21/2008 11:13:43 PM

I like to get a hotel room with a jacuzzi, cigars, and alcohol. Then rearrange the room so I can watch TV from the tub. It's awesome.

6/21/2008 11:14:19 PM

i bring my laptop in and listen to music. or read a magazine. but usually i just close my eyes and hope i don't fall asleep and drown.

6/21/2008 11:14:21 PM

i will be happy to stop by and assure your safety. and bring you soaps.

i usually take them during the year before i go to sleep to destress. and i get the lavender bath bubbles (the aromatic kind that is supposed to help you relax). and i just chill. and roll a towel up and rest my head on it like a pillow. then afterwards i just jump straight into bed. it is the best. i'm usually really sore from being stressed out and studying so it feels really good to my muscles to just soak.

you could listen to music or light scented candles. maybe you are making the bath too hot. sometimes i make it too hot and then i just sweat and get uncomfortable.

6/21/2008 11:17:35 PM

i have not taken a bath in years, yo

6/21/2008 11:17:59 PM

i rediscovered it this year it is AMAZING. you can even drink hot tea while in the bath for an ultra relaxing time. but they don't have to be 30 minutes. i think i only stay in like 15 minutes. maybe longer if i feel like it...but usually under 30 for sure.

6/21/2008 11:21:48 PM

lol...i'm about to make a bath i guess...i'm gonna like get it ready before i get in the water

6/21/2008 11:28:01 PM

I didn't use to enjoy baths all that much, but then I moved to Japan and learned how they take baths. You wash off before you get in the water and then you soak for awhile. It's really nice.

6/21/2008 11:33:32 PM

what i got to work with...can i use a little dish soap to make more bubbles?

Women at risk for. . .

Bacterial vaginosis and candidiasis (thrush)

Symptoms - bacterial vaginosis

Quote :

"Approximately 50% of women with BV will be asymptomatic (experience no symptoms) (3). If present, symptoms can include: Fishy smelling vaginal discharge (often worse at menstruation or after unprotected vaginal intercourse). Grey or white vaginal discharge, thin or watery in consistency. Vaginal itching."

Prevention

Quote :

"To reduce the risk of recurrence, women should avoid practices that upset the natural bacterial balance in the vagina. It is best to avoid using perfumed talcs and deodorants in the perineal area, as well as douching and using bubble-bath, soap, bath salts and shampoo when taking a bath (sitting in water which contains these products can disturb the natural environment in the vagina). Quitting smoking may also be helpful."

Symptoms - candidiasis (thrush)

Quote :

"Approximately 10-20% of women with thrush are asymptomatic (6). Symptoms are often worse in the week before menstruation. Symptoms can include: A thick white or creamy vaginal discharge (may be cottage-cheese like in appearance). Itchiness and redness in and around the vagina. Discomfort and/or pain during sexual intercourse. Burning on urination."

Prevention

Quote :

"There are a number of practices that are said to reduce a woman's chances of getting thrush. While in some cases there is limited scientific evidence about their effectiveness, many women believe they are helpful. Practices include: Avoid wearing tight fitting clothing like jeans and pantyhose and underwear made from synthetic fibres. This creates a moist, warm environment which encourages the growth of Candida. Remove wet or damp bathing suits immediately after swimming. Avoid douching, perfumed soaps, bubble baths and bath salts, perfumed toilet paper and panty liners. Change underwear daily. Wash underwear in hot water (to destroy fungi) and double rinse (to remove any irritating detergent). Maintain a strong immune system by getting adequate nutrition and sleep, not smoking and managing stress levels through regular exercise, massage, yoga, relaxation, meditation or Tai chi. If prescribed antibiotics for a health complaint, ask the doctor about also taking anti-fungal preparations in combination as a preventative measure."
