I drive to office everyday and its about 40 mins one way. Im 5 months now and my husband is saying maybe i should stop, but i feel totally fine driving. Till when is it okay to continue na?
Drove in Bangalore traffic till my third trimester, no issues. Honestly the bigger risk is the stress of traffic, not the driving itself. Short comfortable drives are fine, just stop driving when the belly makes it awkward.
Yes you can, early and mid pregnancy especially. Wear the seatbelt properly, lap belt under the belly, shoulder belt to the side. In the last weeks I personally avoided it because of comfort and quick reaction time. Go by how you feel.
I drove to work till about my 7th month, totally fine for a normal pregnancy. Just keep the seatbelt below the bump, take breaks on long drives, and dont do it when you're very tired. Later when the bump got big the steering felt close, so I stopped then.
I was nervous about this too! I felt scared to drive alone in case something happens. But for a normal pregnancy it's okay with seatbelt and short distances. Anyone else got anxious about driving alone while pregnant?
It depends on your pregnancy honestly. Mine had some issues so my doctor advised against long drives. For a smooth pregnancy short drives are usually okay, but do ask your gynac about your specific case before deciding.
