We only have indian style toilet at home and now in my second trimester the sitting down is getting little difficult. is it actually safe to keep using it or i should arrange western one? pls share.
I am planning right now and always wondered if squatting is safe in early pregnancy. Good to know it is actually fine unless there are some complications! Thanks for sharing everyone.
During my pregnancy, I used the Indian toilet till the second trimester. But post my C-section and in late pregnancy, western was a lifesaver because bending down is very hard. Use whatever is comfortable for you.
Haha, squatting on an Indian toilet with a heavy belly and constant food baby inside is a real workout! It is safe, but honestly, in my third trimester, I switched to western just for comfort.
I used it throughout my pregnancy and had no issues at all. In fact, my gynac said squatting helps prepare the body for labor. Just make sure the floor isn't slippery.
Arre don't stress too much about this! Indian toilet is actually good exercise for the pelvic muscles, unless your doc has told you to avoid squatting. Just be careful not to slip.
Beta, humare zamane mein toh sab Indian toilet hi use karte the and normal delivery hoti thi. But agar back pain ya doctor ne mana kiya hai, toh western use karo. Be very careful while sitting and standing.
At my parents' house, we only had an Indian toilet. My mom made sure there was a proper handrail for support so I wouldn't lose balance. It is totally safe if you don't have any pain.
