the heat of the bath causes blood to flow to the skin to remove the heat... the more blood to the skin the less for the organs including the brain. and when you stand up after lying down it causes something called orthostatic hypotension which decreases blood pressure as you stand... also caused by some medications (usually blood pressure meds)
