Hi Nalini,

I do not think your sister would be having any problems while playing with her niece and nephews, rather I feel playing with them will help her to relax. she must take care of certain things while she is with the kids. she must never exhaust herself and must not do anything that can be risky. During this period, she is prone to falls so she must be extra careful.

Hi,
Don't worry. It's fine to play with kids during pregnancy as long as she does not get exhausted. She needs to eat healthy and be physically fit so that she remains fit and fine. She can play simple games with the kids but she must take rest in between to prevent overexertion.
