I love sitting cross legged on the floor while eating, its my comfort position. But MIL says dont fold legs like that now in pregnancy. Is it actually a problem ya just an old belief?
According to my pregnancy tracker app, sitting cross-legged (Sukhasana) is actually recommended as it opens up the hips and prepares you for labor. Just make sure you don't sit in one position for too long to keep the blood circulation going.
Honestly, sitting with folded legs is completely fine and even helps with posture. Just listen to your body—if your legs start getting numb or your knees hurt, change your position or sit on a chair. Don't stress too much about these minor things!
Yes, dear, you can absolutely fold your legs and sit on the floor, it's actually very good for your pelvic area. Since I had an IVF pregnancy, I was extra cautious about everything, but my doctor assured me this is perfectly safe as long as you are comfortable.
Usually it is fine, but if you have pelvic pain, cervix issues, or any swelling, please ask your doctor first. I had some complications in my second trimester and my gynac advised me to avoid sitting on the floor to prevent any extra pressure. Better to be safe!
I am in my 5th month and I still sit cross-legged on the bed, but sometimes my legs get stiff and I panic. Does anyone else feel that tightness in the pelvic area? My doctor said it's normal, but I still get a bit worried.
