errr... you do realise that neither myself nor my husband read or write Japanese, don't you?

Please realise I'm already very familiar with Tokyo Sento & Onsen (ぴあ - I honestly don't know what it means)
Here's a thread I already prepared on this very subject

Fat lot of good it's doing me now

I can do some more research online (you probably have no idea how many fruitless hours I've already put into this) but at a bookstore . Online translation tools are much trickier to use when you're looking at paper .

This is what the link you provided looks like to me: http://www.excite-webtl.jp/world/eng...%96%7C+%96%F3+
If there's a connection to lower water temperatures and suitability for pregnant women, I can't make it out at all. (Only link in the page was this one: http://www.excite-webtl.jp/world/eng...=JAEN&wb_dis=2 about as useful as a kappa no he)

Some help would be very much appreciated.
