Bit awkward to ask but I have to. Im in 2nd trimester and we are not sure whats safe and whats not during this time. Is this ok or should we avoid? pls dont judge.
Haan, bilkul safe hai agar koi pregnancy complications nahi hain toh. Bas hygiene ka dhyaan rakhna na, and extra careful rehna taaki koi infection na ho.
My mother-in-law advised to be extremely gentle and avoid any stress to the body, which is very true. Usually it is safe as long as hands are thoroughly washed to avoid infections, but definitely ask your doctor if you have any high-risk issues.
It is generally considered safe during a normal pregnancy because the cervix is tightly sealed. However, if you have a history of spotting, low-lying placenta, or have been put on pelvic rest, please check with your doctor first.
I used to worry so much about this thinking it would cause infection or hurt the baby! It is safe, but please ensure absolute hygiene and stop immediately if you feel any cramps or pain.
