Is it okay to squat down to do laundry, wash vegetables, and wash dishes during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Hello, I am currently three months pregnant. Can I do laundry, wash dishes, and clean up while pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Actually, women who are pregnant should avoid intense exercise and prevent falling. Doing household chores is actually good for the baby. There's no need for too many restrictions. Moms can comfortably wash clothes while standing. If the water is too cold, you can let it sit for a while, warm it up, or wear insulated gloves!
