I have a really blocked nose since few days, im 16 weeks now. Normally i just do steam with hot water but now im scared if the heat is okay for baby. Is it safe to do or should i skip it yaar?
Yaar light steam for the face is fine, I did it for congestion. Actually just be careful not to lean too close and burn yourself, balance thoda off rehta hai with the belly. Full body steam rooms and saunas I avoided completely.
Mild facial steaming for a stuffy nose, sure. But hot tubs, steam baths and very high heat I would avoid, raising body temp too much isnt advised. When in doubt just ask your gynac, better safe na.
Face steaming for a blocked nose is okay if you are careful with the hot water and dont sit too long. I did it when I had a cold and felt better. But for any serious cold or fever, please check with your gynac instead of just home steaming.
