jemma,
Good heavens, no. Taking a bath is a good idea anytime.
This idea I think began when someone didn't realize that babies are different from adults.
You see, with infants' sometimes incomplete digestive systems--their stomach's pyloric valve is often not quite strong enough yet--bathing an infant right after eating may cause him to vomit. It isn't the warm water that does this, however, but the movement.
However, adults are not children (Yes, I know, "Tell my husband that," I can hear a chorus of wives say). Our stomachs are considerably stronger than infants' are. When we eat and then bathe, we will not vomit.
Depending on how much Jose Cuervo we've had to drink during our meal, I suppose.
But for us, bathing right after eating is not a hazard of any kind. If you want to do it, do so and enjoy it.

i think YES, i've seen that in the news that you should NOT take a bath after eating you meal, i forgot the reason why it has something to do with the blood circulation and the contraction of the stomach..am not joking. the news said it could really result to death if done often.

No, it's fine.
My husband baths when he get up to start the day. I usually take mine after supper, as baths make me sleepy.
I think it is correct to to take a bath before you go to bed to wash off the day's sludge. It is good to wash your face in the morning and afternoon.

No, it's totally not dangerous, just when you eat a lot and when you bend over to wash yourself, your stomach is ful just so you don't throw up when you wash yourself below the waist.
Otherwise, it's completely safe!
