It is not recommended to go. The temple is crowded and chaotic, with many thresholds. Not suitable for pregnant women to walk around, burning incense is not good for pregnant women.
1. From the perspective of geomantic omen, go to the temple to burn incense and pray. If your wish comes true, you must do it in time. During pregnancy, women can do all Buddhist things, that is to say, they can make wishes in temples, but they should pay attention to their bodies not to do high-risk actions. Of course, you can also wait for the children to play before making a wish.
2, but from a realistic point of view, pregnant women are still not suitable for going to temples. Because the incense burned in the temple is made of wood and chemical essence, the gas released by burning a lot of wood and chemical essence is very harmful to the health of pregnant women and fetuses. Especially Indian incense and sandalwood, pregnant women are very prone to miscarriage after smelling for a long time, so pregnant women try to go to temples as little as possible.
In fact, there are many superstitions that it is not good for pregnant women to go to temples. But the scientific explanation is that because there are many people in the temple and the air is not good, it is not suitable for pregnant women's activities, especially because the temple is always filled with the smell of incense and the air is not fresh, so it is better not to go as much as possible. Pregnant women should never smell Indian incense, sandalwood and musk. Generally, first-class incense will contain musk, which is very dangerous for pregnant women. Pure musk will abort as long as it smells. It is clearly pointed out in the Pharmacopoeia that musk is prohibited for pregnant women.
Is it taboo for pregnant women to go to temples?
Still have to pay attention, there is generally no taboo, but you should pay attention to safety when walking.
1, choose when there are few people.
Many people like to go to temples on the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva or during the Chinese New Year holidays. Pregnant women should remember that they should go when there are few people. Because of the special constitution of pregnant women, many people will be bumped, and many people burn incense in temples, resulting in poor air quality, which is not good for fetal health.
2. Try to stay away from fragrant smoke.
You need to use high incense when you burn incense and worship Buddha. No matter what kind of high fragrance, its ingredients are not good for fetal health. Therefore, pregnant women should immediately go out of the smoky room and breathe fresh air outside after lighting incense and worshipping Buddha.
3, the action should not be too big
It is not difficult for pregnant women who are pregnant for three or four months, but it is difficult for pregnant women who are pregnant for eight or nine months. Pregnant women should bow their heads according to their own situation. If they are unwell, they can bow down directly, and don't force themselves to kneel down.
Precautions for pregnant women to go out during pregnancy
Generally speaking, if pregnant women are healthy and have no special adverse reactions after pregnancy, they can travel at the appropriate time of pregnancy, but special attention should be paid to prevent accidents.
It is best for pregnant women to travel between the fourth and sixth month of pregnancy, which is the safest period. This is because, first, at this time, the severe pregnancy reaction has passed, the heavy paunch and swelling of legs and feet have not yet appeared, and pregnant women have a certain ability to bear the hardships of travel and a happy mood. Second, the fetus has initially gained a foothold. "
