A. Hey momma! Congrats for your pregnancy. Knitting and hand stitching cause pressure in the lower back and stomach. It may lead to back pain. If your are in beginning of the pregnancy, placenta near O.S may change due to movements of the baby. Though that don't risk yourself.Take rest and do some alternatives 1. Avoid sitting or standing too long in a same position. 2. Don't over strain. 3. Eat healthy and surprise your baby with colourful healthy fruits. 4. Solve brainteasers and puzzles, it not only pass your time. It makes your baby active and intelligent. 5. Stay connected with your baby. Talk to your baby and give positive thoughts like you are strong and healthy, you are safe inside momma's bump 6. Pregnancy is not a disease so don't stress yourself. Have hope and be happy for your baby. You are strong enough to carry your baby. Instead of knitting, try 10 minutes activities like drawing, coloring,etc.
