Our flat is on the third floor with no lift and im just 7 weeks. My MIL panics every time i climb and tells me to be careful. Is it really risky in early pregnancy or am i being made to worry for nothing?
Generally fine but if you have had bleeding or your doctor advised rest, then be careful. In my case they told me to limit stairs because of spotting. So follow what your own gynac says for your situation.
My MIL was so worried about stairs in my early months, she kept telling me to go slow. Doctor said normal climbing is fine, just hold the railing and don't rush. I climbed daily and everything was okay.
Climbing stairs normally is completely fine, I did it through both pregnancies. Just don't run up or carry heavy things while doing it. Use the railing and take your time, thats all.
