Mujhe horror films bohot pasand hai but my saas keeps saying ki it will affect the baby and dar lag jayega. Im 5 months now and honestly thoda confused, is this just a old belief ya actually something to it? anyone watched scary movies during pregnancy?
I completely understand why you'd worry about this, even small things used to make me super anxious when I was pregnant. If watching horror movies makes your heart race or gives u bad dreams, please avoid them for now. Your mental peace is what matters the most.
Actually it doesn't affect the baby directly, but stress levels can change hormones slightly. I had thyroid issues so I was extra careful and always asked my doctor about every small doubt during my checkups. Best is to ask your gynac in your next visit just to be 100% sure.
Haha honestly no, horror movies won't harm the baby. My twin boys survived my horror movie marathons just fine during my pregnancy. Just don't jump too much during jump scares otherwise you might spill your popcorn! Relax and watch what u want.
Honestly, unless your doctor has specifically advised you to avoid high-excitement things, it is totally fine. I used to watch thrillers after coming home from office to wind down. Just don't cut down on your sleep for late-night movies.
Every small thing can feel scary when you have waited so long for this miracle. Scientifically it doesn't cause any harm, but if it makes your heart race, it's better to avoid for your own comfort. Take care of yourself, dear, u are doing great.
Ghar wale hamesha mana karte hain ki darr jaogi toh baby pe asar padega. But don't take stress, dear. Agar darr lagta hai toh mat dekho, bas khush raho aur acha socho.
It's completely fine to watch them as long as it doesn't make you too anxious or raise your heart rate. Your peace of mind is very important right now. If you feel even slightly uncomfortable, just switch to something light and sweet.
