Expectant mothers in the late stage of pregnancy become particularly bulky as the gestational age increases, and rapid weight gain can cause inconvenience to their movements, especially when going up and down stairs. Many families live in high-rise buildings without elevators and can only walk up stairs. So, are you afraid of going up stairs in the late stage of pregnancy?
1. Most women are afraid of going up stairs, fearing that body movements may affect their baby's development. And it's also not good for expectant mothers. When climbing stairs, their knees have to constantly bend, and they have to bear three times the weight of their body to complete it, which can easily cause damage to their knees. Moreover, when going down stairs, it's also very dangerous. At this time, the leg has a strong impact on the upper body, and the uterus is prone to contractions in this situation, which can lead to premature birth. Therefore, it's reasonable for expectant mothers to be afraid.
2. It is not safe to climb stairs with your belly up during pregnancy. Pregnant women tend to lean forward for safety reasons, which can put a lot of pressure on their stomach and waist. This can also easily lead to premature birth, and in case of accidents, they may fall down stairs or twist their feet.
It is normal for pregnant women to be afraid of going up stairs, so female friends should try to climb stairs as little as possible during pregnancy, but it is not about not going out. They should still go out and exercise appropriately. However, when climbing stairs, they should pay attention to safety. If they feel uncomfortable, they should stop climbing stairs to avoid long-term damage to the fetus in the womb.
