Im around 8 weeks and i drop things constantly haha. Every time i bend to pick up my saas gives me a look. Is bending actually a problem this early or am i overthinking?
Since I had severe bleeding issues in my first trimester, my doctor strictly told me to avoid any bending or lifting. If your pregnancy is completely normal, it might be fine, but please confirm with your gynac first to be safe.
My gynac explained that bending doesn't hurt the embryo in early pregnancy because it is tiny and protected. However, she advised bending from the knees rather than the waist to protect my back and prevent sudden dizziness.
Haan, bend toh kar sakte ho, starting me koi dikkat nahi hoti. Bas dhyan rakhna ki sudden jhatka na lage body ko aur bhari balti ya saman toh bilkul mat uthana, na?
My saas and mom strictly stopped me from bending forward, saying it puts pressure on the baby. Honestly, mild bending is fine, but to keep peace at home and prevent any back strain, I started squatting instead of bending directly.
My mother used to worry a lot when I bent down to clean or lift things. But my doctor explained that the baby is very well protected deep inside the pelvis early on. Still, try to squat instead of bending from the waist to prevent dizziness.
