Usually fine if pregnancy is normal. Confirm once with your doctor na.

Revathi Gaikwad · Answer

For a normal healthy pregnancy it is generally fine, the baby is well protected. But if you have any bleeding, pain or a history of miscarriage, your doctor may ask you to avoid it. Best to ask your own gynac since they know your case.

Vrinda Singhania · Answer

I had a loss earlier so my doctor told us to be careful in the first trimester. Please dont assume, just ask your gynac about your specific situation. Every pregnancy history is different and it is okay to be cautious.

 · Answer

Yaar if your pregnancy is normal and doc hasnt said no, then dont overthink it. Just be gentle and listen to your comfort. If anything feels off, stop and call the gynac, simple.
