My cousin's valakaapu is next week and im also pregnant, 5 months. In our family some elders say pregnant women shouldnt attend another's function. Is this true or just old belief? confused.
You can go, but if you feel overwhelmed by the crowd or rituals, it is okay to politely leave early. Take care of your emotional and physical comfort first.
Yes, you can go and celebrate! Just wear comfortable footwear, and if your doctor permits, a light walk around the venue is fine. Avoid standing in one place for too long.
I completely understand the anxiety around these social events and superstitions. It is totally safe to go and enjoy, just don't stand for too long if you feel tired.
