I woke up in the middle of the night with severe cramps. Sure enough I have started my period, my first since my operation for ectopic pregnancy.

In the past I would soak in a bathtub of warm water to relieve the cramps. Now that our hot tub is fixed, would it be ok to soak in the hot tub? The hot tub is a lot warmer that the bathtub and my whole body would be in the water. I would use a tampon so it shouldn't contaminate the water.
