Will Climbing Five Floors By Stairs By A Pregnant Lady Cause Any Harm To The Baby?

Hi, I'm 33 years old and 14 weeks pregnant. I live in a 5th floor apartment with lift access, but yesterday unfortunately the lift didn't work and I had to climb all the way up. I took it slowly. But I'm worried whether it would harm my baby. My dr has told me I can do moderate exercises, just wondering climbing up 5 floors ( slowly) is ok? Thanks. Dinu

HELLO DINU & WELCOME TO HCM,
I had studied your query, i will advice to you should walk for 20 minute daily by taking rest in every 10 minute. As you can use the stair for going to floor, but remember that take rest on going to one floor then start again. Hope so it will help to you a lot.

Thanks & Regards
