My family wants to do a small homam at ghar next week and im 5 months along. Bas thoda confused if the smoke and sitting for long is okay for me. Anyone did it during pregnancy?
Honestly, sitting for too long can be hard on your back during pregnancy. I only do my daily walks and light yoga after my doctor cleared it, so I would suggest sitting on a comfortable chair instead of the floor. Just stay away from direct smoke and keep drinking water.
Haan na, puja path se man ko kitna sukoon milta hai. Bas dhyan rakhna ki dhuaan zyada na ho, ghar ke khidki darwaze khule rakhna. All the best, Ganpati bappa bless u.
It is absolutely safe, just use your common sense. Don't sit on the floor for hours and strain your legs, use a proper chair. And keep some water or coconut water nearby so u stay hydrated throughout the puja.
I got so scared of the smoke during my first trimester and thought it would harm the baby! But actually, my gynac said it is totally fine as long as the room is well-ventilated. Just sit slightly far from the homam fire and don't panic at all.
Yes dear, you can definitely participate in the homam. Just make sure you sit near a window or door so you get fresh air and don't feel suffocated. Take care of yourself.
