I work a desk job and spend a lot of time sitting. Is there a particular sitting position that is safe or recommended during pregnancy, or should I be worried about long hours of sitting?
Sitting is fine, but please make sure you aren't sitting on very low stools or folding your legs tightly. I had some early contractions, so my doctor was very specific about me keeping my feet elevated on a small stool while sitting. Please ask your gynac once.
Sitting is safe, but I have read that we should avoid sitting for too long without breaks. Using a soft cushion for your back might make it much more comfortable.
Yes dear, sitting is perfectly safe but try to avoid crossing your legs as my mother-in-law says it can affect blood circulation, and my doctor agreed too. Always sit with proper back support and don't slouch.
Working a 9-to-5 desk job while pregnant was tough. I used a good ergonomic cushion for my lower back and made sure to stand up and stretch every 45 minutes. Avoid sitting continuously for long hours, it really helps with the swelling.
Haan bilkul safe hai dear, bas palti maarke floor pe thoda dhyan se baithna na. Couch pe baithte waqt back ke peeche ek soft pillow laga lo. Comfortable rehna sabse zaroori hai.
