Yes, you should avoid hot tubs at least for the first few months. Because your body temperature can be raised, you risk causing neural tube defects. There is also some suspected issues with miscarriage.

No. Your baby is at least 1 degree Celsius warmer than you and if they overheat, it can cause abnormalities.

I wouldn't risk it, it is not worth the gamble. High temperatures can harm the baby which is why doctors tell pregnant women to not take overly hot baths or go into hot tubs.

How do you sit while pregnant?

The farther along you are in your pregnancy, the harder it seems to sit properly. The baby is literally on top of your bladder, so you would need to sit and stand slowly to avoid any embarrassment. You should sit straight up with your back straight. Keep your feet planted on the floor. Crossing your legs may limit blood from pumping appropriately while pregnant.
