Taboos for pregnant women going out at night

We all know that pregnant women will undergo some physical changes during pregnancy because of the increase in progesterone in their bodies. As the pregnancy time increases, the pregnant woman's body will become heavier. At this time, many pregnant women will not do housework, choose to rest in bed, and will not go out at night. Because the road is dark, it is easy for pregnant women to bump into things. So what are the taboos for pregnant women to go out at night?

So is this really the case? Obstetricians say that it is indeed not easy for pregnant women to go out at night. The reason is not superstition, but mainly due to the following aspects.

Pregnant women should not move freely in bed

Especially when there is a pregnant woman at home, it is best not to move the bed, tables, chairs and large decorations at home at will, especially the bed, because if the bed of the pregnant woman is accidentally moved to a position that conflicts with the fetal god, it will directly have a very bad impact on the pregnant woman. Therefore, if there is a pregnant woman at home, it is best not to make major changes to the furnishings at home.

Don't do needlework

Traditional folk customs believe that pregnant women should not use scissors, awls, or sharp needles for needlework during pregnancy, as they believe that these things may carry evil spirits and seriously affect the development of the fetus, such as causing abnormalities in the fetus' hearing, vision, and sense of smell. However, this view is only popular in a few areas. Moreover, in today's society, there are very few mothers who do needlework during pregnancy. But in any case, it is always good to be more careful.

Banned from weddings and funerals

Pregnant women do not attend funerals. This is a custom in many places in my country. People believe that pregnancy is a happy event, which may conflict with death, a sad event. In addition, if some people die in vain or accidentally, the evil spirit will directly affect the development of the fetus. Therefore, there is a folk taboo not to let pregnant women attend funerals. In addition, in a few places, pregnant women are also prohibited from attending weddings. For specific circumstances, please refer to local customs. For safety reasons, it is best to listen to the words of the elderly and ask for good luck. If nothing goes wrong, it's fine. If something does happen, it will be difficult to explain.

First of all, pregnant women have difficulty in moving, and their large bellies affect their field of vision below the belly. Also, visibility is low at night, so it can be very dangerous if they accidentally fall.

Secondly, on moonlit nights, the temperature is relatively high during the day. When it gets cooler at night, the moisture in the air easily condenses into mist, which can easily cause colds when it falls on people. Pregnant women, the elderly, children and other people with poor physical constitutions are more likely to get sick.

Finally, insects and birds are active at night, especially in rural areas, which can easily scare pregnant women and cause miscarriage.

So, whether you believe it or not, if there is a pregnant woman at home, it is best not to go out too late. Of course, it is also good to go out for a walk after dinner before it gets dark. I wonder if you mothers have ever heard of such taboos?
