    I've been on the toilet for the whole pregnancy, so I don't think there's anything wrong with it, if you're worried about using the toilet.

    No, because when squatting, the legs are apart, and the belly is in the space between the legs, which will not press the baby, but squatting should be slow and pay attention to safety.

    It depends on the gestational week. In fact, generally speaking, it will not press the baby, because if the uterus is still relatively small in the first trimester, the uterus is in the pelvic cavity, so it is relatively safe for the fetus and the uterus, because it has a pelvic protection, and it is impossible to press the uterus when squatting to go to the toilet, and it is impossible to press the fetus. Of course, if it is in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, because the uterus is constantly enlarged, squatting may make pregnant women feel uncomfortable, because after all, a huge uterus has a squatting action, which may be unsafe for pregnant women, and there may be falls in the process of squatting and getting up.

    Therefore, it is mainly unsafe for pregnant women, if the amount of amniotic fluid is normal, generally speaking, some actions done by pregnant women will not have any possibility of squeezing the fetus. Because the fetus lives in an amniotic fluid sac, if the fetus moves freely in the amniotic fluid, it depends on the amount of amniotic fluid, and if the amniotic fluid volume is normal, it will basically not press the fetus. Think about it, in the previous decades of our society, there were no toilets at that time, everyone was squatting to go to the toilet, even now there are some places where there is no toilet, but also using squatting toilets, so it is not that people in these places, or we were people decades ago and hundreds of years ago, then pregnant women squatted to go to the toilet, so pregnant women squatting to go to the toilet, generally will not press the fetus, as long as the amniotic fluid volume is normal.

    Pregnant women squatting in the toilet in the early stages of pregnancy generally do not cause significant adverse effects on the baby's development. In the middle and third trimesters of pregnancy, due to the development of the fetus and the enlargement of the uterus, it is easy to press the belly to the baby when going to the toilet, and too long to go to the toilet may lead to the baby's limited activities in the uterine cavity, and even cause the baby to lack oxygen. In the middle and third trimesters of pregnancy, pregnant women should try not to squat on the toilet for a long time, and it is best to use a toilet.

    If you want to squat on the toilet, be sure to spread your legs wider, or you can use a commode chair to relieve the pressure caused by squatting.

    At least you have to use a toilet, just push down, you can't kick down, and you will definitely press the baby if you push hard.

    Under normal circumstances, pregnant women will not press the baby by squatting, especially in the first few months when the belly is still small, and in the third trimester, the squatting will make the mother feel uncomfortable because the belly is too large, so it is recommended to take the way of sitting in the late pregnancy. The protection of amniotic fluid in the abdomen of the baby will not affect the baby, but there are also individual physical differences, so you should pay more attention.

    Pregnant women squatting from a medical point of view will not press the baby, but it is not easy to squat in the toilet for a long time, and if the body is inconvenient after the month is too large, it is not recommended to squat, which will have a certain impact on the fetus in the womb, and in severe cases, excessive pressure may cause the risk of miscarriage. But as long as the body does not feel uncomfortable, it will not affect the baby, after all, the amniotic fluid will play a certain protective role in the fetus.

    Pregnant women do not have much physical reaction in the early stages of pregnancy, so it doesn't matter if you choose to squat, as long as the pregnant woman doesn't feel unwell, it doesn't matter. Normally, when a child is in the belly, the amniotic fluid plays a protective role and does not have much impact on the fetus, but after squatting, pay attention to the legs as far apart as possible, so that the posture is conducive to reducing the pressure on the stomach, so that the pregnant woman will not feel uncomfortable, and it will not affect the baby.

    If it is in the late stage of pregnancy, the legs are swollen, and the body is getting heavier and heavier, if you squat, you will feel uncomfortable, and it will also affect the baby to a certain extent, so it is still recommended to take the way of sitting on the toilet, even if there is no danger, prevention is very important. Usually within 3 months of pregnancy, the uterine enlargement is not obvious, after 3 months of pregnancy, the uterus enlarges into the abdominal cavity, the birth of the fetus is growing faster, the uterine enlargement is gradually obvious, and the squatting will feel uncomfortable, but under normal circumstances, it will not press the baby.

    So through the above introduction, pregnant women squatting will press the baby, this question must have a further understanding, but everything is not absolute, because the functions of the human body are different, the baby's fetal position is different, there is no obvious growth in the abdomen in the early stage of pregnancy, as long as there is no physical discomfort, there is no need to worry too much, but in the later stage, you still need to pay attention to it. After all, the process of conceiving a baby is very difficult, and every mother wants to give her baby a healthier and safer growth atmosphere.

    In the third trimester of pregnancy, mothers should pay attention to a lot of things, and at this time, pregnant mothers may not be able to move easily, so there are likely to be some accidents. At this time, the baby in the belly will get bigger and bigger, at this time, the mother should pay great attention to the squatting in the toilet, not squatting for too long, otherwise it may press the baby, and in serious cases, there may be a miscarriage or premature birth of the baby. Therefore, it is best for mothers to go to the toilet in the late stage of pregnancy, not to use the squatting toilet, so as to avoid pressing the baby, ensure the baby's health, and let the baby give birth smoothly.
