My bedroom is on first floor so I have to go up and down many times a day. Everyone at ghar keeps telling me dont climb stairs. Is it actually bad or just a myth? Im 4 months.
I panicked so much when I had to climb three flights of stairs in my second trimester, thinking I would hurt the baby. But my doctor assured me it's completely normal and actually good exercise if you have a low-risk pregnancy. Just hold the railing and don't rush.
In my house, my MIL strictly asked me to avoid climbing stairs during the first few months, saying it's not safe. But later she allowed me to climb slowly, holding the railing. If your elders say no, it's just out of love, but you can do it slowly if you feel active.
Climbing stairs is great, just don't try to run like you are in an action movie! I used to climb like a very old, tired turtle while holding my tummy with both hands. It's totally fine, just take it super slow.
Please be very careful, especially if you have had any bleeding or spotting. I had some early complications and my doctor strictly put me on complete bed rest, including absolutely zero stairs. Please check with your gynac once before doing this daily.
Yes, it is generally good and keeps you active! 🚶♀️ Just make sure you aren't feeling dizzy and take deep breaths. Hold the railing tightly and wear comfortable flats, okay? 💖
Haha, I only climbed stairs because the sweet shop was on the first floor and I wanted my hot jalebis! Honestly, climbing slowly is actually a good mini-workout, just make sure you don't carry heavy grocery bags while doing it.
It is fine as long as you are careful and don't fall, as a hospital emergency visit can cost a bomb. I lived on the second floor with no lift, so I had to use stairs daily. Just walk slowly, take breaks on each landing, and save your energy.
