Do you ever take a bath late at night, like gone midnight? It's about half 12 here in the UK right now, and i'm going to run myself a bath soon. The reason i'm having it so late is becuase i always have my bath at night, but i got caught up watching the Eurovision Song Contest tonight (though i don't know why i bothered), so haven't had chance to have one yet. However, i do often have a bath late at night, often gone midnight. have you ever done that before, do you make a regular habit of it?

I have been known to take baths after Midnight regularly, and sometimes even as late as 1 or 2am.
I like getting in the bath and then going to bed right afterwards. The bath helps me to relax and settle down for the night, especially if I slip a couple drops of lavender essential oil in the water too.
If I use the Lavender, I'll also use Lavender in my oil burner in the bedroom, and light it prior to getting in the bath, so that the bedroom smells soothing.
I must admit that recently, after battling for so long with Insomnia, that it appears to be getting better (Fingers crossed) and so my baths, as a result, have been earlier.
However, for those nights I can't sleep, a late bath followed directly by bed is always worth a try.

I'm a late night bather---often well after midnight...maybe cause I'm glued to the computer before then...and to make it even more relaxing I bath by candlelit and have nice incense burning...ahhh...how relaxing!

Nearly every night I have my bath late. Last night it was gone 2:00am before I jumped into one, or should I say slowly climbed in at that time of the morning!!
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one hezoid.

By the way I just responded to your post for reaching 1000 and it was deleted after I pressed the skip button. Seems these types of discussions are not allowed anymore, the reason why, I do not understand, so I will say here Congrats!!!

Usually I take a shower between 2 and 3 in the morning, sometimes later than that if I can't sleep. I almost never take a bath unless I really need to unwind but there are times when I'll run a nice hot bath and fall asleep in it only to wake up freezing cold.

I do it most of the time. There's nothing wrong with bathing at night. I guess it is even helpful to having a good night sleep because you feel cool and fresh. However, as much as possible i do not sleep with my hair still wet because of the old wives tale that it causes gradually blindness and makes your hair turn gray sooner. I do not know where is the scientific evidence for that. lol I can see my self bathing at least 2 times a day.

I do it all the time. Then again, it's normal for me to be up late since I work second shift and go to school at night(from 5pm-10pm) so any time before 11pm is early to me!LOL!
Usually I like to takes my night-time bath before 1:30am though so that my hair dries before I go to bed:) I love taking baths at night when all is quiet and reading a great book or magazine, it's such a stress reliever for me.

Yes I often take a bath late night after the day is over. I like to light a candle read a book and just relax. That is me time. I usually use a salt or fizzy bath to relax myself while I am laying on my bath pillow. I love it!
