Oh god, during my pregnancy, sitting straight for hours without moving during grahan sounded like torture! I just stayed inside, watched a movie, and skipped using knives just to keep my MIL happy. Don't worry, babies are safe inside you, just chill!
Honestly, pregnancy is already so exhausting with the constant nausea, so don't make it harder by stressing over too many grahan rules. Just stay indoors and rest comfortably on your bed. Your mental peace is what matters most for the baby.
In my third trimester, I am already too tired to even stand up, so staying in bed during grahan is actually very easy for me! I am just avoiding sharp objects because why take a risk and invite family drama? Just use it as an excuse to get some extra sleep.
Humare yahan toh bolte hain ki grahan ke time chaku ya kainchi nahi use karni chahiye, aur bahar nahi jana chahiye. Aap bas chupchap room mein baitho, bhagwan ka naam lo aur thoda aaram karo. Jyada tension mat lena, sab achha hoga.
Scientifically, there is no proof that chandra grahan affects the baby, so my doctor told me to lead a normal life. But to keep my family happy, I just stayed indoors and avoided cutting anything during those hours. Do what makes you feel peaceful and comfortable.
