We only have indian toilet at home and as my belly is growing its getting harder to sit. Im 5 months and a little worried about the pressure. Is it safe to keep using it na?
Honestly, for something like this that involves physical strain and balance, I would always recommend checking with your gynac. They can assess your individual condition and advise what's safest for you. It's better to be overly cautious than take any risks during pregnancy.
I used an Indian toilet for a good part of my pregnancy, especially in the first and second trimesters. It actually helps with pelvic strength, which some say is good for normal delivery. But in the last trimester, it got really hard because of the big bump, so I switched to western at home. Just be careful and support yourself well.
Oh my god, this was such a big question for me too! I was so scared of falling or putting too much pressure. I think initially it's fine, but as your belly grows, it might become difficult and uncomfortable. It's better to listen to your body and if you feel uneasy, maybe switch to a western commode.
Hahah, Indian toilet? Right now in my 3rd trimester, just standing up feels like a full workout! 😂 In the earlier months, it was manageable, but now my knees and back scream. If you can manage it, great, but no shame in finding a comfy western commode! Your body will tell you what's up.
This is a good question! I think generally it's okay, but you must be very careful with your balance, especially as you progress. If you have any other health conditions, like joint pain or thyroid issues that affect energy, it's always best to discuss with your doctor during your regular follow-ups. Safety first, always!
Haan, I totally panicked about this too! My MIL insisted I use it for delivery benefits. For the first few months, it was fine. Then it got harder. But seriously, it's not a big deal if you need to switch. Just make sure you feel stable and don't strain yourself. Your comfort matters most.
