There's a lunar eclipse coming up soon, and my grandmother is very particular about certain rituals during pregnancy. What are some of the traditional things that are advised not to do during a lunar eclipse when pregnant?
Actually, with severe nausea, it was impossible for me to sit straight or follow 10 different rules. If you feel sick or need to throw up, just go and do it, dont hold it back because of eclipse timings. Your physical comfort should be your top priority, period.
I was also very confused during my pregnancy regarding eclipse rules. My main advice from my C-section recovery experience is just to avoid standing or sitting in one stiff posture for too long. If there is an eclipse, just lie down and relax your body, dont strain yourself.
People say you should not eat or drink anything during the eclipse, but please be careful if you have high blood sugar issues. Starving can drop your glucose levels and make u feel dizzy. Just have simple light food or milk if you feel hungry, baby's nutrition should not suffer.
Haan na, eclipse ke time elders in house say dont touch knives or scissors. I would say tension mat lo, bas comfortable position me let jao and keep yourself distracted. Kuch nahi hota ho na, safely bas normal rest karo.
Honestly, solar or lunar eclipse rituals can be very stressful when family forces u. But please check with your gynac once if you feel too anxious. My doc told me these are mostly old beliefs, but she advised to just rest and not take stress as health is most important.
