I have to go to my maika next week and its a long bus journey, around 5 hrs. Im in second tri now. Bus travel pe thoda doubt hai because of the bumpy ride, anyone done a long bus trip while pregnant?
I am in my 5th month and my MIL is asking me to travel to our hometown by bus, but I am so scared of the potholes. Is anyone else traveling by bus in their second trimester? I really want to ask my doc to say no so I can avoid it.
Honestly, bus journeys are not very safe due to heavy jerks and sudden stops. Please check with your gynac first because they know your pregnancy condition best. Do not plan any travel without asking them.
Listen, I wouldn't recommend bus travel, especially if it's a long route or the roads are bad. It's just not worth the risk and the physical strain. If you absolutely have to, sit near the front and keep your doctor's number on speed dial.
I totally understand that sometimes travel is unavoidable, but bus journeys can be really exhausting and bumpy for you and the little one. Try to avoid long bus rides if possible, and please take plenty of breaks to stretch.
Didi, ho sake toh bus se safar mat karo, raste me bohot jhatke lagte hain aur seats bhi thik nahi hoti. Agar jana bohot zaroori hai toh train se jao ya gaadi dheere chalane bolo. Apni sehat ka dhyan rakhna.
Medically, bus travel in India is risky due to sudden brakes and bad suspension. If you must go, avoid the back seats at all costs and choose a sleeper bus if possible. Still, get a green light from your gynac before booking.
I felt so sick and scared when I had to travel by bus in my second trimester because of the bumpy roads. The constant bouncing made my back hurt terribly. If you have no other option, please sit in the middle of the bus where jerks are fewer.
