Hi Everyone,

I stay in an independent house where my bedroom is on the first floor and kitchen in the ground floor. I end up climbing up and down the stairs atleast 10 days a day. Am 24 weeks pregnant and have a low lying placenta. My family has been suggesting that i move to the room on the ground floor and avoid climbing stairs. But i really don't want to shift 'coz i like my room and space on the first floor very much....what do you all have to say about this?

Greeshma pallavi replied. I was also staying in row-huse where my bedroom on third floor, hall/kitchen 2nd floor and entrance ground floor. I started to have leg pains and breathing problem.. so finally we shifted to our older 3bhk house which has just 1 floor..
Listen to elders..

Please don't do this.. atleast for few days shift ground floor. And once your gync confirms that everything is fine then you can shift back to your room. You can visit your room once or twice a day so that you will not feel bad.
Right now I suggest you to listen to the advice given by you elder.. Its just few days only.. Raji replied. Hi Greeshma,

I think its better to be careful from our end especially at this juncture. You could probably make an effort to restrict yourself downstairs as much as possible. Bring all your regular usage items down and you could probably go up only at the end of the day. I think if you make it a habit then it wont seem so much of a task, you'll just get used to it.

Best,

I think the best person to ask is ur doctor....GO by the doc's advice..Also try and limit your travels up and down..bring some of the stuff u use in ur bedroom downstairs for everyday use..
Hope this helps..
