Can I go to a movie theater for pregnant women?

Of course, for every future mother is very important positive emotions, so she needs as much as possible to relax and have fun. That is why many women during pregnancy do not give up a variety of ways to cheer themselves up, including going to the cinema.

Meanwhile, some future mothers, on the contrary, are afraid to visit such places and try to avoid them, because they are afraid that too loud sound will harm the unborn baby. In this article, we will try to figure out whether it is possible for pregnant women to go to a cinema, or this entertainment is better to be postponed to later times.

Benefit and harm of the cinema during pregnancy

The benefit of visiting a cinema during pregnancy is obvious - a good artistic or animated film allows the future mother to get distracted from pressing problems, recharge positive energy, relax and spend free time with interest.

Meanwhile, such entertainment can carry a certain harm for a girl or a woman who is in an "interesting" position, namely:

  1. The cinema is, first of all, a public place, which is visited by a huge number of people every day. Due to the peculiarities of the immunity of a pregnant woman, when visiting such establishments, there is a very high probability of "catching" a viral or bacterial infection that can have a very negative impact on the health and life of the fetus and the condition of the expectant mother.
  2. While watching the movie, a woman in an "interesting" position has to sit for a long time in a motionless position. In the presence of varicose veins or a tendency to thrombosis, it can cause pain and swelling, especially if the future mother wears tight or uncomfortable clothes and shoes.
  3. Often in cinemas, in which many people gather, it becomes very stuffy. Lack of air in the room can lead to the onset of oxygen starvation in a future baby, which can lead to incredibly serious consequences, up to his intrauterine death.
  4. Finally, some films, for example, thrillers or "horror movies", can cause strong anxiety and negative emotions, which women who are in a happy expectation of motherhood should be avoided.

Although many future mothers also fear too loud a sound that accompanies the film in the cinema, in reality, it can not hurt the baby. The fetal bladder protects the future baby very well from negative external influences, including too loud sounds, so fears that arise in pregnant women about this are completely unjustified.

Is it possible for pregnant women to go to the cinema in 3D?

If pregnant women can afford to watch an ordinary film in a movie theater, but with certain precautions and not too often, this can not be said about the modern paintings shown in 3D.

So, the use of this technology has a number of contraindications, and, in particular, one of them is the waiting period for the baby. Pregnant women should opt out of watching 3D movies in the cinema, as they can have adverse health effects.

In particular, as a result of this pastime, many expectant mothers started vomiting and nausea, there was a headache, muscle tic and disorientation. In addition, do not forget that the 3D-technologies have an extremely unfavorable effect on the visual apparatus.
