    Can we shift to another house if anyone in the family is pregnant?
    I have read that we shouldn't shift when there's a pregnant woman in the family.
    Why is that so?

    Hi Tanisha,

    I believe that our ancestors didnot like the idea of shifting to a new house when a member of the family is pregnant because the new house could be dusty (also new paint etc) and it could cause some allergies. Also, shifting the house is a tedious process which could make the lady tired. One more reason could be that it would be a new environment and there are chances for the lady to not feel comfortable in it. There could only be health reasons attached to such a belief - thats what I believe.

    Dear Tanisha,
    I had same doubts when we were planning.. I remember asking around here too.. The thing is I have seen some families have shifted when the lady of the house is pregnant, but there were absolutely no problems. However, my mom has seen 2 families where they shifted during those times and the child was affected.. Its again one of those topics that has no scientific background and could as well be mere coincidence..
    I would say, if you have a choice, plan to shift beforehand or after delivery.. However, if you have no choice, then trust God and He will take care.. As long as you are clear in mind and faith, no need to worry simply..
    JMO, others will probably add better suggestions..

    Love
    Savi

    I think that shifting of house is not adviced only after a certain period of pregnancy.

    In olden days, there was no proper road and transport facility to shift the household items and people from one place to another, giving a lot of stress and strain to the people involved. That might be the reason to advice against shifting house when a woman in the family was pregnant.

    Moreover, I believe, houses must be of large areas in those days, unlike now, making the placement of things in the house, another cumbersome process.

    One more reason may be, the immediate availability of help to a pregnant woman in a known area, than in a new place.
