A solar eclipse (grahan) is coming soon, and my elders are telling me to be very careful during pregnancy. What are the traditional things one should do or avoid during a grahan when pregnant? I want to respect the customs.
I would say don't worry about old beliefs too much, but just to be on the safer side, do whatever makes you feel peaceful. Always ask your gynac if you are feeling physically stressed during those hours.
When we are already going through a delicate pregnancy, minor stresses can worry us. For my peace of mind, I just stayed in my room and rested, but never skipped my meals or medicines.
Honestly, with my work shifts, I couldn't follow any strict rules. I just stayed indoors, rested, and avoided using knives or sharp objects just to keep my MIL happy.
