We stay on 2nd floor with no lift so i have to climb daily. Im 5 months along now. Everyone at home keeps telling me to be careful, is climbing stairs actually risky or am i overthinking?
Stairs are fine, just dont try to win a race on them yaar haha. Slow and steady, one hand on the railing. Your knees might complain in the last month but thats just life.
My MIL was so against me using stairs, kept saying baith jao haha. But the doctor said normal use is totally okay, just dont rush. So I did, slowly, holding the railing, and all was fine.
I used stairs my whole pregnancy, my flat is on the second floor and there was no lift haha. Just go slow and hold the railing. It actually kept me a bit active and I had a smooth normal delivery.
For most women stairs are fine if u're careful, but in my case I was told to limit them because of some complications. So it depends on ur pregnancy. Just check with ur gynac if u have any risk factors.
